It’s like when people say David Beckham has great style... no he doesn’t, but when you are handsome and have a body society deems as “perfect” you always look amazing...

bizarre to me that anyone would bring up his body shape as the problem. there are plenty of heavier set guys that look great. it's definitely easier to pull things off when you have a more "ideal" body type, but look at guys like niidawg (former styleforum member), tony sylvester, ethan newton, jackie gleason, michael drake, etc. all of those guys look tremendous -- some of them even dress with a lot of personality. they look unusual, but they also don't look like a cartoon villain who just took over manhattan and will kill everyone unless the batman answers his riddle.

roger stone could get the best tailor in the world and even a new body. it wouldn't change the fact that he has terrible taste.

also weird to me that this is being described as partisan. are we liking the penguin's outfits now to own the libs?

why are you so mad at me? i honestly don't even remember ever interacting with you.

your posts in this thread is just a string of triggered anti-democrat rants when no one here even brought up stone's politics.

The logical explanation is that at one point, all his 20 year+ old bespoke suits fit him. Then he lost weight. He never bothered to get them altered

But of course petulant little Dems like @dieworkwear have to get their partisan shots in.

That would be the logical explanation, but there are plenty of pictures of him and I haven't seen any that show this. If anything he was skinnier. And even if he did, shoulder width is very hard to increase (trust me I've tried) and his neck didn't shrink by 2.5". That doesn't happen.

I also wanted to note that you're criticizing some of the other forum members because you think they are attacking Stone purely out of politics, but the opposite could also be argued - that you're defending him because of your political feelings. I'm happy to criticize bad style on all political spectrums:

Don't you have an AOC Green New Deal rally to go to?

My original point proves itself.

This is objectively false because you did once send me a message with a racial stereotype in it completely out of the blue. Unfortunately I can't search for it because of the new forum software.

Heard you send a lot of out of the blue nasty messages, even to this day.

You definitely did send me a racial stereotype message many years ago. I only regret the search functionality is broken now or I'd dig it up.
