Damn sartorial public. So fickle.

It has with me, though my order preceded his.

BB sold them in Fall '06, and they're the one SF 'thing' I cottoned to before I got here. Now Zegna has navy silk ones, striped and dotted, in the window on 5th. So they're done

I mentioned in another thread, there's a BB Black Fleece version now.

Next stop: Banana Republic.

I've not seen patterned knits like Tomasso's before. Kind of like lacy stockings for men. I like them.

They all read every word we type, seriously.

And look for a Sean John issue in the near future as Diddy was admiring one of my BD/FC shirts last month.

I used to only wear knit ties with sport jackets, but now I wear them with lighter, sportier suits too. Probably due to the SF influence

I still don`t wear them with darker, business-like suits though.

Nice suit. I'll even give a pass to the overcheck, which walks close to the edge.

Worsted or something off-center?

Who's the smaller dude standing behind him? His suit is in the same overcheck.

About 8 weeks ago after buying a Black Fleece bd with fc, I ordered a few pinpoint bd shirts with fc from BB. They haven't arrived, yet, but I'm looking forward to getting them.

It is a fresco from Woodhouse. I suppose that they call it something different than fresco, the book is Summer Comfort.

Mini Me is also wearing the same fabric. That is how we roll.
