Does Phat Guido ever wear the same thing twice?

I've been browsing through the WAYRN thread and in every update its always something new. His collection must be extensive and stylish. Every new update in his posts feature great clothes that always fit him properly. Wonder what he does with all those other clothes

It's almost the exact opposite. He has an incredibly well edited wardrobe with items that all seem to work well with pretty much every other piece. He can mix and match quite easily and come up with seemingly infinite combos. I think your comments show how well PG has created a small, but amazingly versatile wardrobe.

This is my goal. I got caught up in a bit of a buying frenzy when I started getting into clothes and SF (as has happened to many) and eventually ended up with too many ties and shirts that can be worn with only a select few other pieces.

He is one of the few people in the world that has completely mastered Photoshop.

He is a compulsive shopper, which is his right. He insists he has limited space and a small wardrobe, but the evidence suggests exactly the opposite.
Remember the two dozen Jantzen shirts and half dozen Herringbone suits (and shirts) he had when he moved to HK. He has vigourously added to his collection since, with new shoes, pants, bags etc appearing almost daily.
To illustrate my point he has moved, in the space of a couple of years, from a wardrobe of Brioni and Caruso to one exclusively of Armani, then on exclusively to Herringbone, then on to Chan and now onto some other HK bespoke maker. Add it all up - add the new shoes to the eight or so Crockett and Jones he already brought with him. There's a lot of stuff involved.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with this, it's just my philosophy is to buy well and wear for a long, long time, irrespective of what the latest temptation is.
Maybe he is bored, who knows.

He sells all that stuff I believe.

he has worn the same thing more than once on multiple occasions (EG 20th century button down, his white bucks...). I don't know if he posts those strictly in SW&D though.

I am not over on this side of the tracks that often.
