I was actually eyeing one of those LBM jackets with the vests. Good to know someone took the plunge and it turned out great.

Really great look Teger, although I wish the belt was darker. Jacket fits great.

Did you know the button-down collar was invented by polo players to keep their shirt collars from flapping in their faces? :teach: I just learned that myself. I personally would never wear a button-down collar with a jacket and tie, but that's personal preference. But judging by that photo, you seem to be in a serious setting not really appropriate for dressing down a jacket so unless the pic isn't representative of what you were doing I think a different shirt would be better.

Can't tell if mocking MC or being serious.

Completely serious. Tie and jacket with button down collar is a casual look. Nothing wrong with it in a vacuum. I'm just inferring from the setting in the photo, along with the pocket square, that it's not a casual day. But maybe it is.

wat. He's also wearing suede derbies and an odd jacket with patch pockets. There is nothing incoherent according to The Rules about it. And considering this is probably an academic something or other because Teger it is probably more than appropriate.

filed under: things only styleforum cares about


Relative to the other things discussed in this thread? Bene's taper being 1/2 inch too long? The length of kgfan's sweater?

Yeah, I made it pretty clear there was nothing inappropriate about the fit. I have no idea if he's a student. I see a guy in a stately room waiting by the door, it looks like he's waiting for an interview or a meeting. He knows to ignore what I said if it's a casual setting.
