Though that never appeared in waywn (for a good reason) I am going to end this thread:
The people who made this pic are supposed to be my friends btw.

The last of my fedoras will be posted on the classifieds on the fedora lounge. My 1926 suit will be on ebay most likely this week. If any of your interested in buying the last of the vintage wardrobe please pm me. Over the past month I have sold 2 bespoke Optimo fedoras, a bespoke Gary White fedora, and a 1930's Dobbs 40.
You're probably joking, but you shouldn't sell the suit. The thing that pushes it over the top and makes it look costumey is the hat. The suit alone is fine -- it's a bit unusual to see someone your age wearing a DB jacket but it's not blindingly age-inappropriate, as the hat was.

I am not joking. IMHO the hat completes the suit. The suit looks inappropriate without a proper hat. Hopefully the same person who buys the suit, buys the hat and wears it better than me.

This is wrong. Keep it.

Honestly, the fact that you see these two clothing items as so inextricably linked is part of the problem. Your clothes aren't you, they aren't part of a "set," and they aren't a ready-made persona. At least they shouldn't be. You should enjoy them as you see fit. Just don't let them wear you.

I really hope you are being facetious. If you let the opinions presented on this board dictate your apparel, then you really don't have the confidence to wear that outfit. However, I think you do.

Perhaps owning both items of the set confers skill bonuses?
