Might as well keep playing.

I saw a jacket very much like this one on the website of an Italian clothing vendor and I liked it very much. When I tried to purchase it, there was no option to ship to the U.S. When I inquired, I was told that, indeed, they had, at that time, no ability to ship to the U.S. and could not accept payment except by bank transfer. But this situation wa supposed to be in the process of "changing". Okay. I asked them to hold the jacket in my size while they resolved whatever their issue was. The issue was resolved a day or two later, by which time, of course, the jacket had been sold in my size.

So I asked Hemrajani to make one for me, only better because I could make a couple of tweaks and because it would be bespoke, not ready to wear. And here it is, in 11oz H&S dupioni silk in this gorgeous burgundy color.

It's just gorgeous, Andy! I'm having Dalcuore make me a similar one - will share pictures in a week or two once ready. Enjoy it!

Having been cooped up in my apartment for the last 24 hours, I have felt the need to get out, and run some errands - some of necessity, others of choice. As it is 31C/88F outside at the present moment, dressing coolly is of paramount importance, but also being presentable in a high-end retail setting is equally important, hence the inclusion of jacket and tie in the only material suitable for this afternoon's weather - seersucker.

Suit & shirt - Brooks Brothers
Tie - Polo Ralph Lauren
Cufflinks - Thomas Pink
Pocket square - Harvie & Hudson, London
Shoes - Magnanni
Hat - Peter Grimm

Navy suede may be the definitive answer for the question of which shoes to wear with seersucker. Well played.

Poppycock. White bucks are the definitive answer. Navy is cool too, but lets not be ridiculous.
