About to go and get a suit done up and have worked out just about everything I'm after (thanks everyone who posts regularly here, especially all the guys who are good enough to put up pics of what they're wearing - really good stuff). I however have one question:
I am really keen on getting a suit with a velvet collar. Now I know that heavy tweed suits with velvet collars are perfectly passable (stuff like Keepers Tweed etc...) but what is 1. The general view on velvet collars on regular suits; and 2. What do people think about a velvet collar on a suit?
It's a 3 piece but apart from that fairly unremarkable as a suit done in black mohair.
Any thoughts/opinions would be brilliant. I mentioned it to my tailor and he shook his head (he's always doing that whenever I ask him to take stuff up too much - I like v.v.short trousers/sleeves).
