That knot is the right stuff!

I chose casual, heavy textures today. The cold is back in the air here in NY.

After two days of casual, practical attire, I have the excuse today of dressing up - having lunch with former colleagues, then an evening lecture at the Frick, with a number of errands in between.

Today's suit I've had for 10 years - perhaps not the most stylishly cut of my three-piece suits, but very comfortable, and a neutral enough background against which to wear bolder patterned shirts and ties, hence today's selections.

Suit - Brooks Brothers Golden Fleece
Shirt - Hilditch & Key
Tie - Lewin (circa 1985 - the label says "Made in England", which, for Lewin's goods, hasn't happened in a long while)
Vintage watch chain
Cufflinks - Penhaligon's
Pocket square - Ashear (circa 1980)
Shoes - Septieme Largeur, Paris
Overcoat - Paal Stuart/Phineas Cole
Scarf - Fortnum & Mason
Hat - Selentino, via JJ Hat Center, NYC.

Sentimental over this; first suit Tom Mahon made for me in 2012.

Looking good in your new life as a ‘jaunty flaneur’. I am very happy to say that TM Lewin are now offering a small selection of Made in England and Italian-made pieces.

Back from cocktails.
Golden age of Hollywood made smoking cool. It kills you though.. so that’s not cool..

Nice look overall. Not sure about the (leather?) trim around the ticket pocket slot—calls a bit too much attention to itself. Personal preference: less is more.

Really beautifully textured Baby Alpaca jacket today as the cold weather started to move it. Worked really well with my shoes I think.

The perfect reason to shoot for balance and proportion when going bespoke. This suit will look great forever. Well done.
