I always liked that man, but let me tell you that tie is terrible as the double breasted ( very well done) pattern. I guess this man was a big eccentric.

Your taste is the reverse of most...most dislike the man, but can like his clothes.

I happen to like what he is wearing in the asparagus series...country in the city? City in the country? Country in the city back into the country? Rus in urbe in rus?

And yes, he was a big eccentric.

I like the late Duke, with all his crazy patterns and slightly drugged-out expression.

On the patio of his residence in Gif-sur-Yvette, from the period that you admire.

What vegetable do we have on the end table?

A Brussels Sprout? A large pinecone?

Looks like a bunch of aspargus

I don't see any shirt sleeves on that picture.

Do I smell a limited edition project? You could have an asparagus green windowpane on top of the basic check for tributive effect.

I'm going for broke: 60oz.

Arm movement is highly overrated.

He had a habit of wearing short-sleeved shirts underneath jackets.

 

[yo!]

So let me get this straight, the Duke can wear a short sleeved shirt with a tie but I can't?

Royal prerogative.
