What Are You Wearing Today?

Immaculate, in the very best sense of the word. Great fit, perfect proportions. Conservative, but far from boring. Your fold-ups are a little too wide for my taste, but that's just nitpicking.

And by the way, why shave? Let it grow into a real beard instead!

Thank you. The jacket is a favourite of mine.



The socks are royalblue/lightblue herringbone which probably looks fairly solid from a few meters away. I wanted to have a darker shoe and thus went for slighty dark socks. The light blue part of the socks are similar to the shirt. A lighter shoe/soc combo might have looked better but I wanted to ground the outfit with a dark shoe.
 
I must say that it's by far the best review I have ever got for an outfit. Some outfits has resulted in 50 or so thumbs but this is a great compliment with a lot of thought behind it. Thank you!
You know I take my contributions to this forum seriously. We need to keep the standards high around here.

From a design standpoint this is a superior deployment of complementary colours, in this case orange and its opposite across the colour wheel blue. Here's why:

  • Colours used sparingly, combined with neutrals.
  • Warm colour against cool.
  • The colours with the most visual weight due to luminosity and saturation are used in the smallest elements.
  • Strong element juxtaposed with pale, desaturated complement.
  • Jacket incorporates hints of warm colour from tie; necktie incorporates neutrals from jacket.
  • Neutrals that are similar in hue made visually distinct by pairing a texture/pattern against a solid (jacket / pants).

At this point it might sound like I have a man-crush on you, but I actually kind of resent you and your perfect goddamn hair.

The more I see that picture of your hairdresser, the more I'm like: "OMG I wish he could do my hair and then we could go shopping and tell seeeeeriously funny stories about omg all the men who try hitting on us but don't ever succeed in getting any lol!!!"

Very top analice & commentary by all today. It makes me proud to be associated with such knowledgable menswear men.

I design stuff for a living, and even after a couple of decades there are still times when I look at something I'm working on and and think, "I know it works, but WHY does it work?" Designers, like well dressed people, eventually internalize the theory and it turns into instinct that we put in play without consciously thinking about it. It's kind of cool when theory intersects the real world in a way that you can analyze and say, "oh, THAT"S why". And we all learn from it.

So to that end I give you the intersection of tissue, texture & colour.

Only gay men in the US wear anything less than 7 inches. The people in this thread wearing 4 inches and mentioning girlfriends are obviously closeted homos. Put a sock in there and walk proudly, but quit pretending to be straight
 
Thank you. The jacket is a favourite of mine.

interesting. now, this calls for a loafer and not a loaf of bread, ymmv. the choice is very unverständlich, quasi.
 
I agree
The 4.0L engine is missing power all the time

probably, I can ask the old fart who drives by the atelier almost every day, why he hasn't upgraded yet? money doesn't seem an issue. fwiw, the grumble of the V10 is nice indeed.
 
You like it?

Would you post pics of yourself fucking the exhaust pipes?

Would you say NO TO DINA N MINO???

Yes, I like it very much. Although, truthfully, my favorite avant is probably the B5 RS4. The looks, the tunability of the platform, and the performance of that car just check all the right boxes for me.

Please bring back the all red dash, the analog clock, and the twin turbo six (in an avant, naturally). My deposit is ready.
 
listen to what? mocking mr. hackett? why? therefore, I would need vorlagen, otherwise I dunno what to mock, not?

btw, not much talk about sciamat on the fora these days? does grimod still use them? since the gentlemans' crowd is in a closed circle information flow has stopped, quasi.

indeed. but will you listen? or will you just mock mr hackett like the sciamat clowns?

 
Evening lovelies.

Date night with the missus.
