Why do you feel that way?

I defer to your superior knowledge.After bigging himself up that much, I expected to see something better. Because there is a lot of things off with that fitting that could have been avoided.
Back is totally off, collar is way too low and off the neck.
Maybe I was just put off by Mr. Jensen's outfit. His jacket looks a bit chunky and crude, especially the collar.
Will be interesting to see the second fitting.
I also need to count the hand stitches that go into our jackets. 30.000 stitches is a lot for a soft tailored jacket.
Yes. I’d been planning to buy this linen-wool-silk EThomas jacket but it sold out in 40L within hours. I think the regular length is a bit too fashionably short (or made for short people by a short person) for most of us. Anyway, I don’t mind missing out so much because the price was way over what I expected.^ Jacket may be just - just - a touch too short, but a lovely pattern and nice combination of colours and textures in the outfit.
Why is it hard to believe?It's hard to believe the world was like this 130 years ago.
My arse. Paris is an architectural shithole, the Brutalist's utopia. Been so since the 1930s. The 1960s and 70s just sealed its fate forever.The city of Paris looks identical today. Very little of the centers architecture and monuments have changed in the 130 years. Only changes today are the transportation, dress, and brown people
Oh yes, the joys of Paris.....My arse. Paris is an architectural shithole, the Brutalist's utopia. Been so since the 1930s. The 1960s and 70s just sealed its fate forever.
this made me laughNice jacket - although he looks as thought he's channelling Errol Flynn but ended up on the wrong movie set.
"No, no, this is Captain Blood - the Dawn Patrol set is on sound stage 2!"
I'm glad that somebody enjoyed it - I was worried that no-one got it!this made me laugh
Don't worry, I got it. It's just that I disagree.I'm glad that somebody enjoyed it - I was worried that no-one got it!
Having studied the sartorial side of JRM, I think he wears OTP. From who I don't know.This is the ‘Agreeable’ thread.
Look at the state of Rees-Mogg’s suit man. Fits him like a parachute.
All his suits look like they were handed down from his father (seen here on the right). Call it the English version of 'il difetto fa l'effetto'. Imperfect fit = old money.Having studied the sartorial side of JRM, I think he wears OTP. From who I don't know.
It's not full on English country aristocrat, not 19th century politician as his critics accuse, but he could do with some tailoring!
i'm a fan. thought it was pooles. nothing that strange about the fit. jackets are long and with a lot of flair in the skirt, both of which are a bit anachronistic style choices today, though not necessarily incorrect or the result of poor tailoring. most pussy SR customers have their tailors cut back on the skirt and length or their tailors don't even bother to propose such things, making everyone look more "normal". I for one am glad he embraces these style choices.This is the ‘Agreeable’ thread.

hang on a second. he looks like he's lost 150 lbs and is still wearing his fat man clothes, and yet somehow this is a 'style choice'? even the pants are gigantic for fucks sake.i'm a fan. thought it was pooles. nothing that strange about the fit. jackets are long and with a lot of flair in the skirt, both of which are a bit anachronistic style choices today, though not necessarily incorrect or the result of poor tailoring. most pussy SR customers have their tailors cut back on the skirt and length or their tailors don't even bother to propose such things, making everyone look more "normal".

He dresses in the silhouette of my grandfather's era when extra material denoted that you weren't on the bones of your arse. I remember him and all my great uncles with that kind of billowy trousers and generous skirt on jackets back in the 1970s. No kipper ties, nylon shirts or flares for them, they were dressing to a certain extent as they had done since the 1930s and 40s. The other thing it has, is comfort for those long sessions in the Commons executing the lost art of filibustering.i'm a fan. thought it was pooles. nothing that strange about the fit. jackets are long and with a lot of flair in the skirt, both of which are a bit anachronistic style choices today, though not necessarily incorrect or the result of poor tailoring. most pussy SR customers have their tailors cut back on the skirt and length or their tailors don't even bother to propose such things, making everyone look more "normal".

It's interesting the very negative articles in the likes of Esquire and GQ attacking JRM's sartorial style as a mask to hide his sinister political views. They fear him as he is a link to the tradition of erudite and eloquent politicians rather than than the windowdressers of today who's role it is to rubber stamp and do what their told from the politburo in Brussels. You can compare and contrast to politicians on both sides of the house and with few exceptions they all look like brown nosing Yes men. You can't say that about JRM.
yes finally some sanity here.You're really speaking my language now.
