A while back I was on a trip to London and happened upon a clothing exhibit in the Victoria and Albert museum. While mostly dedicated to women's fashion, I did find this display of suits.

Camera n00b, so I apologize for the bad pics . . .

Thank you for leaving out the Sean John suit that is at the V&A. I thought that whoever is curating men's clothing must not know anything about it, and whoever is actually dressing the mannequins must be some sort of anarchist who hates suits.

They mention Tom Ford at Gucci, but fail to mention that he's apparently just ripping off from Tommy Nutter.

And pull it off. Although it's easier to see you in the striped Nutter.
