FC 'It looks a little like a Crombie' VOTING THREAD

[Clouseau]

A message from @Man-of-Mystery :

It looks a bit like a Crombie, but is it?

First of all, thank you to everyone who entered – and indeed for everyone who voted for me in the previous contest. I must apologise for dragging this one on for a long time, but Christmas, New Year, etc. happened right in the middle of proceedings, and it was also a very busy time for me.

Next, I need to thank Clouseau, without whom I wouldn’t have had a clue what to do. He kept me more-or-less on my toes.

Now it’s time to put up the poll.

I would like you all to look at the entries, and decide who has best caught the spirit of the single-breasted, gent’s garment that is the equivalent in overcoats to the hoover and the biro. Who has caught the spirit? Whether it has been city gent style, bovver boy vibe, or a new take altogether – who has nailed it in style?

The contestants are below... make your choice!

@Claghorn


@Clouseau


@Rixon


@Yorky


@DiplomaticTies


@comrade


@An Acute Style


@Gerry Nelson


@upr_crust


@amiga505

[Man-of-Mystery]

Poll closes tomorrow, folks! Come on in and vote.

 

[Clouseau]

Thanks for the votes so far guys (i am surprised !), you've still got around 15 hours to vote though.

 

[Man-of-Mystery]

Yes, thank you for everyone who participated and voted. I'm well pleased.

 

[Mr Knightley]

Congratulations @Clouseau !

@Yorky I especially liked your entry - it seemed to capture that spirit of 1969?

Good Challenge @Man-of-Mystery and it was an honour to finish on the podium!

 

[Clouseau]

New Friday Challenge is up :

Friday Challenge: Sport Coat/Blazer and Jeans

Not to everyone's taste, but the Sport coat (Blazer, Jacket) and Jeans combo has become a classic, it has even got its dedicated thread on StyleForum. Once provocative, worn by outsiders, it's now a men's staple, for the better… or worse (please avoid to mention Jeremy Clarkson). Let's try the...
