Did your dapperness survive the event?

ETA: I think the accessories with the Dupioni are spot-on as well, forgot to mention that...


I will learn how to smile, I promise. I survived....no major stains!

Dupioni from the other pic is very nice; great color.


They are a bit high in the rise. It is not too high though. Polo, of course.

Second fit: great stuff, i might have preffered a brown or tan tie, taking up the colour of the trou. Apart from that, a winner!


Darker? Ok, maybe. I was trying to look very "springy," thus the pink, as opposed to white.

Those pants are black, white and blue. I guess the blend made them seem to have brown tones.

More closed fronts or a lower buttoning point on the jacket would probably suit the rise of those trousers better. Are the trousers part of a suit normally, by any chance? I have that issue with one or two suits; if I wear their trousers separately, it has to be in winter when I can add an odd waistcoat or jumper to mask the rise.


Yeah, they are orphaned suit pants. I think they would be perfect with a slim fitting DB.

If I were forced to assume someone's life on this forum based on the WAYWRN pictures alone I'd be torn between Spoo and Neofinitia.

Spoomeister, am I mistaken, or is today's tie Charvet? No one else makes silk jacquard quite so reflective, or am I wrong?

Elegant, as always, and authoritative as well - perfect for the first day of playing the boss with a new employee.

Mike - Pants look much better with cuffs Holdfast - Great red pants. Cant wait to wear mine. Are they Panta? Spoozy - That seems dangerously close to a SpooPose....
confused.gif
(great fit though) PatrickBOOTH - MOAR. Fabric looks great. Too much break in the pants though
laugh.gif
Lufty - Go USA! Threadbearer -Another SpooPose? Make sure you pay the royalties on the way out, please. Crusty - Im feeeeeeeling the cowboy boots!! To all those who commented today, thanks. The tie is a Charvet, purchased at the Vendome boutique in Paris. The PS appears matchy-ish, but the tie was grey/yellow and the PS was hunter green with yellow tips.
