HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

[Alexander]



Friday, going out of town:

I don't know but I think cuff links are out of place, гаспадин Victor. just my point of view -Saludos

 

[dieselman89]

yes there are - I was asking Malford of London

It's a Zegna for Dunhill Wool / Cashmere mix birdseye.

Great shoes, what are they?

Those are EG for RL ("Grant")

Thanks, I need another pair of dress shoes. I typically buy AE because you can get them at good prices when seconds go on sale. I have park avenues, strands, and van ness. I have been looking at a "monks-strap" similar to these for a while, which of these three do you think is best suited for suits? I threw in the lombard because I like lace-ups...I will be purchasing the shoe in black. Lombard Boston Norwich

I like them too, but I see what he is saying. cufflinks/jeans just seems off to me too.

+1. Also cufflinks with casual leather jacket. (or lizardskin - appointed denim jacket as part of a Canadian tuxedo)!

The whole 'cufflinks witha sportcoat / blazer / open neck thing has been done before on here without a consensus IIRC, but mixing such disparate levels of formality as in Victor's pic just doesn't work for me.

in a bit of a rush today but managed to snap a few:

Vintage Canali? Got it off the 'bay for $70

Suit: Canali
Shirt: BB
Tie: Zegna Couture
Shoes: G&G
Yachtmaster, Prada glasses

Got a feeling I should take it to my tailor to have the skirt flare out abit more?
I don't know why my shoulders pucker up so much.... looks fine when I'm fixing myself in the mirror.

I don't usually post here because it isa bit out of my league, and I seldom have call for a tie.
Kiton light wool coat (probably the last time this season)
Hermes MTM shirt
Brioni cords
Ferragamo driving moccasins.

If you skip the pics, and just list the incredible brands you wear, you will inherit the mantle of the legendary KitonBrioni.

Is it because of the jacket or an alteration problem?........or both?

Lufty - this is one of your best fitting jackets. And its being thrown off by the baggy pants. I think it usually works if you go baggy on baggy ala o/o or fitted on fitted ala almost everyone else ... lol.

lufty, jfc, please don't do that again.
spoo, I think your brown coat would look better with lighter pants, more of a mid gray,
TTO, while every piece is good in itself, I think the shirt and tie patterns don't work together.

i agree with this - first thing that jumped out at me. the shirt is nice and so is the tie. both with the p/s don't jive.

in a bit of a rush today but managed to snap a few:

the buttoning points are too low. its causes some problems with the midsection of your body. unfortunately, i dont know if it is something a tailor can remedy.

Jacket. Shoulders extend too far. You'll see "divots" where the arm meets the shoulder. A competent tailor can fix.

I see it now! I knew it looked a bit funny (still learning )
I'll have to live with it I guess. Not bad overall for $70

I'm debating this.... kinda hesitant though when the cost for alteration is more than the cost of the entire suit.

Ah yes! I LOVE this tie! Mucho thanks again

Did you have this jacket shortened?
