HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

[Digmenow]



LufT, I'm interested in exactly what you would buy/wear if money wasn't an issue?

As am I.

Sig worthy.

Button is right at my belly button, tee hee.

Maybe it's just too short then?

Nice and clean, Spoo. You need navy ribbed socks though... And put that strap in.

Question: What does Styleforum poster SpooPoker's clothing have in common with market cap weighted indices?

Wait wait, I know this!

good god, I did not look at the socks until you mentioned them. you are an evil man. Nice shoes though Spoo and I like that tie. I like todays look because you are not matching, you are complimenting (except for the green socks). A shade darker on the pants would have probably worked better but given the weather today I can see why you went with those.

Victor, does your tailor also make your shirts?

 

[VictorSF]

Yes, shirts, jackets, pants, coats - all of this tailor

...

If the tie were form the pocket square fabric and the square from the tie, the look would improve. I agree with Manton.

I also agree with Ed

Did you have the lapels narrowed?

damn good eye. Lapels never had a buttonhole, but they were too wide for my liking...

My good eye was first drawn to how off the lapels look especially in relation to the rest of the suit. The tailor did not do the job correctly. Sorry, but the lapels look too narrow for your size and they don't mesh with the style of the jacket. You need to narrow the flaps now to make it look more cohesive but the proportions of the suit are thrown off by the lapels.

More controversy.

Sorry, Ed.

Victor - nice combo. I think a couple things that would lift your fits up are your shirt collars (longer points) and jacket (the lapel) at the gorge could be a little wider, so it archs more ... dont know if i am saying it right.

This one goes out to all you systematic flaw lovers out there.

Spoo - the jacket/tie/shirt/ps combo is REALLY nice. i like the orange pop.

NOBD - why is the green socks bad ... and why would blue be better? Just trying to understand the technical/aesthetic reasoning behind the choice/comment.
