of course this all explodes the one day i week i am gone.
as far as dressing more sedately, i am a big fan of simple, somber, elegant, crisp fits. i am fan of pretty much everything as long as its good, and well executed. be it a LK extravaganza, or a pB block of solids.
just for you, here is a fit that i did a while back that i really loved that might be more to your liking:
This is true. Nobody has ever accused u of pattern disease (solidophobia?) Stitchy have they?
IIRC u got quite a caning in Whnay's a couple of years ago for posting fits that Spectre would probably have liked quite a bit....
Also IIRC the most recent multi-pattern trend in this thread (I can't speak for pre-2009) stems back to the 'Fooniversity' era in Whnay's: that was all about complex dynamics of contrast, palette, saturation and texture; tone balancing and using a broad spectrum of colors and contrasting pattern densities, which was all rooted in
There were multi-pattern posters before that, like Spoo and Gnatty and Sterlling Gilette and OD/OT and Crusty of course but I don't recall it being a 'thing' to post multi-patterns for their own sakes.
Is the pendulum about to swing the other way?? The Irony is that the guy who set all that madness off was also known for his errr...... bedside manner.
From Friday.
Apropos above, I wonder whether Foo would have said something along the lines of :
'Nobody on the street is going to think you look bad, but no man who is well-dressed will mistake you for one of his own either.'
I like it and I would wear it FWIW
