This thread is like a train wreck, you just can't help staring as you pass by.

Wow! I never knew so many people would reply. Thanks Sator for the advice but really, I love the way I dress now but I'll heed some of the advice you gave.

What's this book you bring up?

For some of my doubters I'm actually the man in the picture so no this isn't a joke. Sigh, I'm not a troll! And please don't make negative comments about looks.

Pardon me for beginning to doubt you (you just took a long time to reply) but if you are so deeply enamoured of your dress why did you post here asking for suggestions if it weren't to try to substantially improve?

The book is entitled The Suit.

Sorry but I only check forums once or twice a day. I just wanted to gauge some opinions but I do want to improve some parts like tie matching and things. I like to really clash sometimes.

I strongly advise against that in your case. It may depress you tremendously

Yes, we could see that

You do realise that by having a keleidoscope of colours like that you chop yourself up, don't you? Choping youself up means you look fragmented and above all - tubby. The black belt - just to mention one instance - creates strong horizontal lines across a background canvass of brown to produce a widening effect. This chops your torso off from your legs and makes you look portly. The glaring white socks even further chops you up. Add the red trousers and you end up looking like you entered down that chimney. That's why you end up blending in perfectly with the wreath Notice the way the gentleman pictured in the link here also wears a black belt with his red trousers. It too has a widening effect on him. http://www.adpunch.org/images/r_sant...oca-cola-2.jpg Maybe you too want to look like a man of substance?
