Hey everyone!

I think that we can all use a reason to get dressed up these days. So how about we kick off a holiday fit contest!

Patrick Cornelius @peppercorn78 is a customer, a friend, a Styleforum member, and a phenomenal jazz musician. We purchased five copies of his CD "Acadia: Way of the Cairns." He's going to choose his top five submissions, and we'll ship a CD to each of those winners. Here's the rules:

1) The contest is open until 12/26
2) You need to show at least one piece of Epaulet clothing or footwear in the pic. It can be a recent or an older item
3) New or at least very recent photos are preferred
4) You can post one photo per day.
5) I'll try to feature every photo posted here on our Instagram stories @Epaulet
6) Patrick will choose all five winners and write a little bit about what he liked on each photo

That's it! If you want to learn more about Patrick Cornelius, then here's his website, and his bandcamp links

And if you're an Epaulet customer who makes his own goods and services, we're looking for partners to start doing this monthly. Send me a PM! I'll buy your items and ship them to the winners.

May I humbly suggest that you kick it off with a boss Sashiko photo!
I’ve devolved into PJs for the evening. Coming up in the morning for sure!

No sashiko today, but it felt good to get sort of dressed up to walk down to the post office.

My EP Camel hair (Piacenza I think??) Nuovo jacket and Hertling moleskin Walts. Marino turtleneck is from Spier Mackay and boots are “All Terrain Indies” from Alden of Carmel. Not the the dressiest option, but dat sole is perfect for snow and ice. Square is Drake’s.

Cheetah chainstitch, black sashiko rivets, Ryder boots. The contest is a nice excuse to have fun even when hanging out at home.

Hey guys! If @peppercorn78 is cool with it, let's extend this contest for another week. I wouldn't be surprised if Christmas was kind of overwhelming for many of us, and this way we have another opportunity with NYE fits. I'll put it into our two newsletters and our Instagram account this week too.

I'm going to submit this on behalf of @UrbanComposition ... he posted it on Instagram, and is looking boss in the Woolrich Donegal Rivets...

And I was wearing the OG Dean's Nuts collab jacket the other day. Not our typical outfit pairing of jeans or chinos, but I think it still mostly worked. The fabric on that piece is just amazing.. I'm glad that you guys were able to score most of the production units.

I’m all for it.
Are there any IG hashtags we should be following as well?
