This is at least the fifth time I've read about Astaire's peculiar eccentricity (pinned, button-down collars). The first time I read about this was in Flusser's Dressing the Man. The other times I've read about it was on various men's style fora, and it's usually attributed to Flusser, but it now seems that it's no longer attributed to him; it's become established fact. Now I've seen most of his movies and quite a few pictures of him, but I don't ever remember seeing Astaire with a pinned, button-down collar. So I have to ask, does anyone have any actual evidence of this, or is this another style fora urban legend?
