HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

[Stefan88]

--
@Stefan88 I'm sorry to say, but real brown shoes would have been better. Chocolate suede, for example.

Ladbroke is a great pair. Had one in midnight blue once, but they were every so slightly too tight, and got rid of them a few years ago.

You guys are making me realise I need more brown in my life. Will have to check my funds in May.

Today: summery low contrast fit, for a change.
New Finamore tie makes a terrible knot.

"I just pulled the trigger on this timeless and classic tie so I could rock it in a three pattern bingo fit. Excuse the tie pen0r, doodz."

Great stuff, superb fit on the jacket! Though a crisp white LC shirt would look even better. I'm not a fan of patterned shirts with glencheck.

Oh, how long have you tried to wear them? In my experience, wholecuts stretch a bit more with wearing in (probably because of the lack of stitching over the toes), so it's better to start with a tight fitting shoe. Perhaps you've got rid of them too soon?

Danke sehr! Of course you're right that a white shirt would look sharper here, but I was going for a low contrast look today and I just don't have a plain blue shirt that's pale enough to work in this context. So, patterned it had to be...

That's rather funny actually. It was one of the first pair of good shoes I bought, and I had no experience with sizing. At the time it felt too tight, while the purchased size is actually the one I'd go for now. Perceptions change I guess.

Normally I'm a great admirer of your sartorial envelope-probing, but I'm afraid that waistcoat is a probe too far, even for me.

With a much more rurally-biased ensemble, I'm sure it could be spectacular.

Victor, sorry, I did a reflex thumb. Apologies.

SpanD, killing it. Simple, accurate and magnificent. Where's the suit from?

 

[Coxsackie]

Hey Victor. Is that jacket by any chance made from the London Lounge "Agnelli" flannel?

Thanks mate. Suit is Oscar Hunt MTM. They're opening their showroom in Sydney soon so you should pop in for a look.
