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

[An Acute Style]

Brooks Brothers sent me some items to style. They let me keep the items.

Three piece linen suit, OCBD, bow tie, and archival collection pocket square. I added some white bucks for a classic summer look.

The sleeves were unfinished so I did a two button cuff. I also took a tip from @Thin White Duke and added a button hole making it a three button jacket. Decent fit for OTR. Some gap in the vent. I may lengthen the sleeves.

Spoiler: More.

Excellent use of dark gray trousers. Great pairing up top.

Thanks E!

I hope you plan to shorten the sleeves on the jacket. Nice neutral color palette. Tie is too long IMO.

For sure. The last tailor I tried ripped me off. Still looking for a new one.

You desecrate this look with a NATO watchstrap?!?!

JK it looks great. You’re right about the vent, but it doesn’t look horrible. I like the contrast on the buttons. Great choice of shoes.

What does that mean AAS?

And it really looks nice. The vent I guess looks better when not buttoned, right

The strap is from Brooks Brothers. It’s BB#1 stripe. It matches the bow tie. You know I like matching things

They DM’d me on Instagram and asked if I was willing to style an outfit in return for a post. I don’t consider myself an influencer, but I think that means they give me free stuff, I wear it and tag them.

Yes it looks better unbuttoned. I don’t button my jackets often honestly.

Definitely influencing me with this one.

you’d be surprised how often your pictures (and Eric’s) come up on random menswear searches. The same thing happens to me in the fishing world. Ive seen my own pics on numerous sites and even in several magazines without my knowledge.

my niece who lives with us is some kind of influencer. She flies around the world taking pictures of herself in famous cities and somehow gets paid

Continuing the week’s linen trend.

Edit: @megadork2000 mine?! How come nobody is asking me to style their ****?!

What a great racket.

The suit is on clearance for $399. Not bad for a three piece in my opinion. I believe @upr_crust has the same suit in ivory. The ivory suit is unfortunately sold out in my size otherwise I would have been thrilled to twin with Crusty.

My name is Eric too!

I'm aware of the picture "stealing". I did put them on the internet. What do you expect? The internet is lawless.

Yeah but she only flies economy and never direct

2020 has endless surprises in store for us
