Hey Vince, lots of colours and patterns there. ATM it's quite incoherent. I think you'd benefit from starting out with just one piece of patterned clothing and let the rest of the ensemble consist of solids, then just take it from there. Also, read about the colour wheel and complimentary colours.

PS. Not to sound like a dick, but that tie needs to burn.

Picked up the SC from my tailor yesterday, after having the sleeves lengthened a bit. Much better, now I don't have to walk around tugging at the sleeves all the time. Still need to tighten the buttons on the shirt cuffs though, to better accommodate my skinny wrists.....

I had the pleasure of meeting with Upr-Crust for a quick stroll around Jermyn street, the arcades and a pop into Drakes last week. I'm afraid we where both under time constraints and forgot to get a photo of the pair of us, but this is what I was wearing.

I get what look you're going for here (and there are some great pieces, especially the shoes) but I think the tie's colours are a little too bright/vivid somehow. I think it's the resident of Britain green and fuschia accents. If they were each a bit darker, everything else would go better together I think. Minus that tie, the rest of this outfit is great.

They do look like really fun fabrics. One day, maybe...

Next up, they need to develop something that causing the bands of light to strobe. Maybe weave some kind of fiber optic in, instead of reflective material. Strobing lights would be awesome.

I'm normally a big fan of your outfits, but the bowtie seems too strong a contrast here. Everything else is nice though, and I like the boutonniere.





Smiling through the rain...

... I think it must be official red trouser day or something. Either that, or a bunch of us all felt like wearing them today in an effort to brighten up the gloomy weather. I was walking around town briefly at lunchtime, and noticed at least four other pairs.
