Someone, I think it might have been in stitches, ran a challenge a few years back which was essentially a “Give Us Your Best Shot” (my description, not his) challenge which simply asked entrants to put together their absolute favorite fit from their current wardrobe. No other restrictions except, I think, that it had to be CM.

Unsurprisingly, given the number of well-dressed people here, it resulted in some interesting stuff, and also quite a bit of participation.

Just a thought.

Cheers,

Ac

Anything which boosts participation is find with me. So something simple? conservative business dress challenge or the like. The red tie. Etc

Congratulations to Acute and Clags, well deserved!

I would consider to also let the next challenge be extended. Clearly quite a few people who are vacationing at the moment and are putting other things before SF.

Strange, but probably healthy.

Well done clags and AAS

Congratz to both of you! What about a daltonism challenge: patterns are ok, everything should fit perfectly, but, uh, the colors ??

 

[Mr Knightley]

Congrats both! Interesting SW&D challenge at the moment (although they seem to be struggling in defining the rules) requiring the wearing of a fit that does not comprise any of your current top-level pieces - a step down, previous level kind of challenge.

The problem of simply postponing is that the challenge thread will quickly disappear, hence me suggesting we hold off a few weeks.

Regardless, here are some thoughts:

Knit tie challenge
Top block challenge (ahem)
conservative business dress challenge
Gray suit, no blue tie challenge
Linen challenge (we had one around this time last year)
Lifestyle challenge (@upr_crust)

Moi? Having a "lifestyle"? Not today, at least - a home in khakis and a polo shirt, waiting for the A/C repairman. Did have something of a "lifestyle event" last night - dinner with Mr. Claymore, he resplendent in a grey, bold stripe three-piece double-breasted suit, but, alas, we were too busy talking to have a non-selfie "selfie" taken.
