What Are You Wearing Today?

[Chorn]

A regular WAYWT thread, with the other to be restricted to asking for specific advice for outfits or items of clothing.

Yesterday and today:

Is this going to be a mix of everything, or just strictly MC?

 

[Chorn]

I probably am going to just post MC, but I think anybody can post anything.

 

[Pauly Chase]

Will start this week. I will try to represent the goth ninja crowd.

 

[Pauly Chase]

Also Chorn, the first picture is amazing. I especially like the burnt orange against charcoal combo.

 

[Rain Man]

That suit in the first picture is stunning. Details?

 

[Grand Potentate]

Someone come up with a better name for this, please. Looking at WAYWT/WAYWRN makes me sad.

Changed for Rambo's birthday.

I really like both the suit and tie. The suit is from Dunhill and the tie is from Hugo Boss. It's one of the few ties I wear still from pre-SF days for, well, obvious reasons.

Today:

Me and my big mouth...

How do I change the size of the image?

I like it. Endorsed.

Jacket may be a little tight (though it might be from where you are stretching out your arm to take the picture). I am generally ambivalent on bow ties...I don't understand them enough to like or dislike them...but I never figured you to be a bow-tie guy, and the fact that you are (or at least wear them on occasion) is pretty fucking sweet.

 

[Chorn]

Those are some ominous skies you got there. Uppermidwest towards Appalachia or something?

 

[Grand Potentate]

How about 'Today's Choice Of Outfit'?

or 'What I'm Wearing Today"?

This thing has too many letters. I keep trying to turn it into an anagram.

I like the anagram idea.

Clothes Or Clothing Knowledge.
Fashionable Uniforms or Clothing Knowledge
Assorted Styles of Special Habilliments Only Looking Extra Special

I'm on board with any of these.

Post Our Outfit Pics

 

[Betelgeuse]

To start my posting count, yesterday's outfit.

 

[Pauly Chase]

AE dip-dyed.

Hopefully this will get some SW&D pictures posts going.

I hope so, too. I know very little about what makes a SW&D fit good. I realize that this requires an extensive answer, so could you explain what you think makes your outfit look good? All I can say that it's a gorgeous shirt.

 

[Betelgeuse]

Problem is that if it were a size less... shoulders wouldn't fit. Hehe

Thank you sir. It is as soft as it looks, people have always asked me why I would spend more than $20 dollars on a plain t-shirt, and my response has always been if you can make simplicity look good, than mission has been accomplished.

In my opinion, the factors that constitute appealing MC fits also dictate good SW&D fits. Those factors include but not limited to proportion, color coordination, usage of accessories, individualism, culture references, etc, etc. I believe there is more room for variation in SW&D than MC, correct me if I am wrong, so there are more options to play around. However more options can also mean more ways to look ridiculous, I have fell victim to ridiculousness in more than one occasion, but I enjoy look different than most of my peers since I live in Kansas.

But the most important factor is the confidence the person possesses when wearing clothes, no matter what he or she wears. Anyways enough of me ranting. Here is today, trying to put recent purchase to use on a cold spring day:

Graphic tie.

 

[Chorn]

Spring birthday for friend's daughter.

 

[Grand Potentate]

Chorn - what size is that photo? Took like 30 seconds to load.

Pink's a very good color on you. Not a fran of gold buttons, but that's a personal taste and I know they're the norm.

 

[Zé Ferreira]

I agree that pink would look good on you generally, but I'm not digging it here. Jacket pants and shirt look ace, but the tie color is off for me.

 

[Chorn]

It's whatever the default size uploaded by SF is; I linked it from there rather than uploading it here.

Its the gold on the buttons. Gold and pink is a horrible color combo.

Weird.

 

[Chorn]

Indeed...the combination is not pleasing; thanks for pinpointing that...it had been bugging me.

The jacket is Huntsman picked up from Seamasterlux on B&S. He gave me a very good deal on it (apparently such deals are increasingly rare there), and I've yet to change out the gold buttons for silver.

 

[Zé Ferreira]

Had already ditched the jacket by the time I could snap a photo. Oh well.

 

[Pauly Chase]

Big cuffs give me colder climate feeling. Also maybe a slimmer belt.

I have always thought you were in your early 20's for some weird reason.

+1 on both

 

[Zé Ferreira]

I am 26...?

 

[Grand Potentate]

I thought you were 22/23-ish. Just from posting though. Never seen an actual picture of you till today.

 

[Chorn]

Looks good EA. I dig the wide belt as well. That picture makes a good case for tie-no-jacket not being the end of the world. When I wear a tie in the summer, I go jacketless and roll up my sleeves. Fortunately, nobody confuses me with a cellphone salesman.

I realize that I'm very much in the minority for this.

I also am a fan of tie-no-jacket combo. Not as contrived in the summer.

That's a look I see many Dr.'s trying these days.
