You all are used to my black-tie outfits. So hello friday, here we go!



So, not only do you attend black tie events every night, but you also get to drive your motor vehicles inside buildings. :slayer:

I am clothes poor, which is why I joined this forum to begin with (for the advice and the ideas) so please do not poke fun that I wear cheap stuff compared to the rest of you.  That being said, I have a grad school (MBA) interview today so I went conservative:

Charcoal Joseph Abboud suit, but it is Loro Piana Super 120s - tailored to fit
BR slim fit white dress shirt
CK blue/white stripe tie
J&M black cap toe oxfords
Brushed stainless tie bar

I did not go with the pocket square since it was an interview.


Joseph Abboud uses Loro Piana? :puzzled:

The only thing I'd change here is the tie bar. I rarely see tie bars associated with conservative business dress looks.

You should post a picture!

Thanks guys!


@TB - I was in a rush to go back into the office and the differing lightings really fux0red the pics..... here's a previous pic with the best representation of suit color:

But if I had to pick from the 3...it would be the outside shot

I've cleared the next few hours out of my schedule to read the "I hate the shoes" comments.

I actually have to say that I really don't like the shoes. Everything else in the outfit is great but the suede at the toecap kinda ruins the shoe and thereby the outfit

Lovely. Jacket is too tight, but you like it that way and it looks good, so I won't even mention it. Tie is fantastic.
Thanks ace... the jacket actually isn't that tight actually... blame the hand in the pocket
