The first icy mist of morning covered the land
With foggy, hazy, vague and blur memories of the Autumn
Where silence is deafening
And winter frost are chilly and deep.

Where vale of grief is lonely
And frost wind of mid winter looks cold and gray
And freshly fallen snow
Warms up the nostalgic memories.

Where imagination helps to add a tint and a shade of life
And show the color of miracles on the garden covered with snow
And springs the hope in our hearts and souls
To bring us a whisper of joy and a winter smile.

And all this takes us on the momentary trip
Of an emotional journey of life
Where we can hear the echo and sounds of silence
And a hand full of memories from the gray and frosty winter mist.

Bonus suit fits











Extra bonus pocket squares




1. H&S Sherry (sherry tweed)
2. Cantarelli (wool maybe flannel?, unknown mill)
3. Drapers hopsack (wool)
4. Worsted Alsport
5. Hunt & Winterbotham (heavy flannel)
6. Moonbeam (wool)
7. Drapers (wool/cashmere)

I'm impressed, jealous and pissed off at the same time. In several cases I have both the same ties and the same jackets, but they look better on you. Damn.

Great thread. @UrbanComposition smashed that out of the park. Fantastic! Tons of great stuff to digest from all who have posted so far.

Damnit! It really is a conspiracy. Patrizio is using all his weapons to force me to buy this tie (in multiple colorways)!

Dudes,
Sorry for being late with my post. It's coming eventually, I promise. But since I have pics using two of the same fabrics that Six has jackets in, thought I would just post those now for a possibly interesting contrast. I'll choose different jackets for later 5 so there's more variety. Apologies as always for my lack of selfie skillz.

@unbelragazzo

You've set the bar high as have the previous posters. Lots of inspiration (and Unbel, looking forward to more).

We're a little low on NE and European representatives, so a few more will show up soon while I'm still curating and we wait for the kick-off posters to complete their posts.

About 50% of the kick off posters have posted. I've invited a few others to buttress regional representation, but stay tuned.

Lots to reflect on in the very excellent gallery. Thanks to everyone thus far.

Kick-off posters are certainly invited to add bonus shots if and whenever they wish. If certain suits seem appropriate for their subsequent posts, that's fine (see below).

Looking forward to

@EFV
@gdl203
@emptym
@kulata
@unbelragazzo
@gazman70k

To cover the NE a bit better, I've asked @poorsod to post and a few others to be announced later once I confirm.
