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

[Thomson]

I thought I'd try a bit of a casual Friday look

A slightly more casual shirt?

Otherwise I like it and don’t mind the blue trousers. Others might disagree.

Suitsupply jacket, Hober tie, Brooks Brothers shirt, Eplaulet trouser.

Re tie clips, I understand where people might be coming from. It just looks a bit more buttoned-up or rigid than most people here like to think themselves to be.

However, if you like it for practical reasons and it therefore becomes a bit of a personal style signifier, I don’t see anything wrong with that at all - esp as it is a pretty unobtrusive clip at that.

Personally I’d wear it a bit lower so that it doesn’t show when the coat is buttoned - would be more elegant in my view.

Ah! Excellent suggestion. Thanks!

Thanks for all the kind words about the baby. I went in to school to help my students prepare for their final exam. Now back to baby duty.

Tie bar is a little high maybe?

Do you like the way your tie bar looks? I only ask because I wear a tie bar all the time, but invisibly, and if you wanted the practicality of using a tie bar but were unsure about the look or it, I’d share my technique if you’re interested.

Giving our new Cavour RTW fit a go today.
Half canvassed, unlined, soft and summery.
Looking forward to our FW18 fully canvassed lineup.

First pair of PT0 trousers and I'm happy to say that they have lived up to the hype
(Pics are a little dark and moody b/c I'm a little dark and moody...and the weather is crappy...I'm not actually that dark and moody...but I kinda wanna be...or pretend to be on the internet...or pretend to wanna be on the internet...)

These pics reinforce my previous comment that the fuller trousers look great.

I realise this is the thread for suits, but what does HOF stand for.

It's a carryover from way back meaning "Head of Forum." I believe it's intended to indicate something similar to a pinned thread.

2nd interview, here is the whole fit.
I really liked the black loafers.

I thought it was hall of fame

I kinda like it, but it's mainly for utility. I'd definitely appreciate your arcane technique, if only for the sake of greater variety.
