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

[upr_crust]

The weather in NYC is warming up, and getting more humid. I had not planned on wearing today's attire today, but, looking at the long-range weather forecast, it seemed that today was the last day on which I could wear this outfit without melting into the pavement, so here I am.

I have included in the photos two of my latest descent into footwear madness, a result of visiting the sample sale at J Fitzpatrick - the pricing was too good not to take advantage.

Suit - Brooks Brothers
Shirt - Tyrwhitt
Tie - Paul Stuart
Cufflinks - Deakin & Francis
Vintage watch chain
Pocket square - Alain Figaret
Shoes - Paul Stuart (I strongly suspect private labeled Crockett & Jones)
Hat - Scala
Face mask - New & Lingwood

In his site-specific installation at JAPAN HOUSE Los Angeles, Japanese artist Kengo Kito (b.1977) uses hula hoops to explore ideas of connection and re-connection.

Napps jacket, Brooks Brothers PPBD shirt, Lands' End tie, Polo Ralph Lauren pocket square, Vineyard Vines trousers, Rugby Ralph Lauren socks, and Allen-Edmonds white suede shoes.

There were a lot of those things there.

For those who think there are not enough pictures of giant columns with giant elephants on top in this thread, one of the four giant columns with giant elephants on top at the Hollywood-Highland Center.

Something different: when the weather lays bare the best-laid plans. I am more amused by my limp pocket square than I should be. Finally, if you ever doubted that polishing your shoes could protect them from the elements, here is some evidence.

Thanks. It's MTO from their Tradizione Collection, around 2.2-2.4k usd. I can probably recommend the classica at half the price.

Shitsupply ???

Alert! The tie is not SF-approved. You have been warned. Also, there was a miscommunication between the tailor and me. The fabric is different from the one I ordered. It was supposed to be a micro-check, but he ordered the houndstooth next to it. Alas, given how well he cut the suit, I ended up happy with the result.

You are joking...that suit is fire! I love the fabric, I was thinking something like that for my next suit. Peak lapels on a SB are not my thing, but it suits you. SF approved, those are not rules, there are more guidelines
