Rye - Great look, but agree with others that we're loosing a lot by not seeing under the coat and getting a look at the entire outfit.

Sauce - Damn... That coat should be decalred illegal in future WAYWN competitions.

I'm giving my vote to Sauce

I voted for him, although I hope I didn't sway the vote the with my initial comment. Sauce is tough to beat, but Rye does it. Too late for a surge?

i dunno man. Sauce always kills it, but I'm just not reaelly feelin the striped shirt underneath the sweater.

Rye's look is FRESH. Out of the blue. The silhouette is perfect and that's what that outfit is in essence. Just awesome.

I dont like the barneys co-op meets urban outfitters look. I'm just not a fan of chucks and the scarf looks out of place. Too much clashing. Hey but what do I know, sauce is winning the poll. Just my 2 bits.

I have to say that this is the hardest vote I've ever made on here. I can relate to both outfits as living in Canada I am decked in a coat like Rye's for half the year, yet I layer a lot like Sauce so can appreciate that too. Ultimately I voted for Sauce because I really liked the striped shirt under the cardi. There's a good chance Rye would have gotten my vote if we could peek at what he's wearing under his coat. (Damnit. I sound like Quagmire. "Heh heh. Can I look under your coat? Oh yeah!")

I love the fit of the coat Rye. To me that's the way a coat like that should fit. Nice and slim in the waist with a little flare at the bottom for dramatic effect while walking. Plus with everyone on the slim, this slim that train it's nice to see a fuller cut pair of pants. It reminded of this shot from GQ.

Back from Orange County Hell.

Nice to see I didn't get totally thrashed.

As for the outfit; todays ****** weather def dictated the option to wear the overcoat. I picked it up in NYC about 5 years ago and I don't get the chance to wear it too often.

The pants I wore just to switch things up, I think people were expecting something skinny. I had to wear the chucks because this is as formal as I get, gotta stay true to form.

The scarf sabotages the look I know, but I have to throw in the odd piece otherwise I'm just conforming to expectations and stereotypes on how to represent formal attire.

Well, if you put it that way, it makes me look equally sad. So stop.
