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

[Cleav]

I would like to be associated with the words of the last speaker

 

[LA Guy]

Or maybe just stay out of that other forum?

Probably a good idea, but hard when you are being blasted constantly there.

I'm so sick of this ****. @P-K-L , kindly leave
@DonCologne alone. You were timed out before for this type of stuff before. You don't like the guy. Fine. Put him on ignore, or hold your tongue. It's clear that your comments are not welcome, and that other members of the forum also find them offensive and spiteful. I've actually received a number of complaints about them. A lot members don't get along, but deliberate baiting is uncommon. @DonCologne , please just PM me or one of the mods if this goes on, instead of cloging up a good thread.

I think that we all understand each other, gentlemen. As you were.

Cheers,

Fok.

Not had much opportunity to post much of late. Shooting this evening and used it as an excuse to wear a tie

I wanted to like your compliment, but realized it might be taken as an endorsement of your character assassination of Tira. So, thanks!

You, sir, have gravely misunderstood me.

correction
a big ***** 

Big T gets it.

Nice over, Clags. The tie sucks though, give it to me.

Neither can they with a wide lapel. This idea of classic style in sf is exactly what us is- a percieved classic style within the walls of sf. A wider lapl suit is no less "classic" than a skinny suit from the 60s. Each has an expiration date/cycle that keeps going in and out.

Your in ial comment led me to believe that you were stating that all skinny lapels are fashiony. Is was exxagerated. As exaggerated as a 5 inch wide lapel which would look as silly
Still this does not remove from the fact that you tried to define style as somthing masculine and classic while fashion is The opposite. Which I totally disagree with.
Fellow cm posters. There is nothing wrong with addmiting you like fashion.noone is going to question your manhood. Trying to mask it as something else look worse.

Àlso, you lost respect for me because I disagree with you?

I lost disrespect because you assume that forum members are unable to make judgements and decisions regarding style on their own.

Skinny lapels are "fashion-y". Nobody is saying that they aren't. They are only stylish for someone that likes them. But in the realm of classic menswear...they are obviously not stylish.

For men interested in classic menswear...it is very clear that style is defined as something that is masculine and timeless. There are aspects of this that are drawn upon in every generation....this is what makes them classic...and this is what makes them stylish. They evolve, but they always evoke their heritage.

Good! Now re-post that outfit, because it was really nice & would probably have hit the 20 thumbs thread if you hadn't removed it. I especially liked that jacket because it had a gorge with slightly less slope, which works well for you.

It appears you have some tendency to circular reasoning...

On another note, I don't think that men who fret endlessly about their clothes and stuff brightly coloured pieces of silk in their breast pockets, will be considered 'masculine' by any general standard. Our CM universe is but a small one.

I've mentioned this before, and I'll mention it again, women in America seem to be really attracted to, or at least interested by, well dressed (by CM standards) men. Certainly more so than in Korea. I don't know if that makes it masculine. But that's gotta count for something.

Au contraire, friend. It is you who has misunderstood me.
