Whatever you do, do not ask about getting a black pinstriped "blazer" in Men's Clothing!!

Get an odd jacket from Thick As Thieves. If you want something cheaper than that, there are other options.

You should really post more about what you can do here. I'm curious, at least. This is tangential, but I took a quick look at your blog and I'm curious if you can make/have made anything like these:

Probably mostly the shot, but the first picture is slightly evocative of of 18th/early 19th century frock coats.

Wow, that shot in the upper left is REALLY effeminate. NTTAWWT.

I own the Rag & Bone hunting jacket in the lower right and it completely rocks.... Not good for layering, though.

I think it's the unusually feminine pose coupled with the bizarrely small head and long neck. Pretty strange shot.

Eh, I don't really. I'm just mildly curious about the design and a bit more curious about his tailor's(s'?) ability to do unusual stuff.

I really dig the collar, lapels, buttons of the gucci jackets, almost like a 17th century coat modernized. However, the shoulder pockets must go. Overall, frida's collection is magnificent, very innovative use of color, fabric, and cuts.

Depends on what your going to do with the blazer.. casual or business?

I like Yoko D jersey blazers, but that's more of a casual thing.
