Disagreeable Menswear Post Of The Day

Just a tad darker flannel would have worked as that is not a particularly dark shade of navy
ymmv
 
Peak lapels go on anything suiting wise.

They do look, tasty with chalkstripes, especially Flannel chakies I have to say. I also like them on linen, where they add a bit of Edwardian foppishness / decadence.
 
Straight from the Zegna website, for one of their Trofeo-fabric suits. Oh my god.

Very true with stripes fabrics - flannel or worsted as demonstrated by Marzotto - but too catchy with plain ones.

Yes, flannel chalkstripe & peaks for the win.

Ask Paully about this fucking ridiculous shit, he was sporting some even shorter than these on the WAYW thread the other day.
How can anyone be taken seriously anywhere, much less on a forum entitled ‘dressed well’, when you’re walking round wearing this ridiculous shit?

light gray for pants (especially in high contrast situations) very over rated. very SF advice. Mid grey obviously the best, but I probably even get more use from charcoal flannels than i do from the very very light gray.

I used to wear them a lot in guess what, my SF days.
Now I have ordered a pair because I have some not so dark sport coats that would look good with them, but wouldn't wear them with the navy blazers.
 
My favourite trouser colour is charcoal. I think in some years I'll end up like my father, wearing only charcoal trousers, black shoes and sedate sportcoats.

Send us a link, my boy. I want to look Evil in the face, what?

Update: I have. Is that a Chinese woman's voice saying "Thanks to Merino?"

Good Lord. You spend your adult life trying to fight stereotypes, then you get this.
