What Are You Wearing Today?

[Thruth]

It is a very nice fabric. I like the scale of that dogtooth in a tweed.

 

[Journeyman]

Thruth - Who made those balmoral boots? The scotchgrain effect looks nice.

Epaulet x Carmina. Was a GMTO a couple of years ago. Forest last on Dainite. The sole plus the scotchgrain might be out of the norm but I think it works

 

[Betelgeuse]

I don't know about this look on you Betel. You just don't have the sweater under suit build.

What's the proper build?

good to see this thread picking up. Pauly Chase the springninja look suits you much better. Betelgeuse is it winter over there? not keen on the ps, also looks very big, like a rolled up lady's scarf almost. FriendCustomer like it except for the sh00 color. lino watch will get you bonus points from Thruth . tie knot looks like you tried to kill yourself, is BLSoda to blame for that?

Thruth - what color is the shirt?

ConchitaWurst - solid fit. I'm a fan of the lighter gray and pink.

FriendCustomer - deets on the houndstooth SC? Both fits look good. I'm a fan of the colors and pattern mixing.

Pauly Chase - what boots are those?

Betelgeuse - it's 80 degrees here in Dallas, how are you wearing a sweater south of the border??

Yesterday it was very cold and rainy.

In my mind its people without any upperbody mass.

You ever seen a buff guy in a cardigan? How did that look???

Anyone over a 40" chest should mitigate bulk.

 

[ConchitaWurst]

it is pale lavender. sadly, not a preferred shade of iGents but i kind of dig it with charcoal. i am pretending i am from the UK today which is also why i am wearing black boots and i don't even have a funeral or job interview to go to!

i'll wear a lavender shirt tomorrow in support of you!

in support of our deputy moderator. was in a hurry no time to choose a better tie

 

[FriendCustomer]

Big dandy distater today. Was very excited to wear my new shirt, very English colored pin point oxford. But didnt really figure out how this morning and then just went to work. The tie will please the eurotrash dungeon members, it's an original and not stolen a thirst from the robber from Robbio.

i have a soft spot for the engrish pyjama too. and separately like everything you;'re wearing. LKP always mocks me when i wear engrish pyjama though as he is boring achnelly light blue and Bengal stripe shirt wearer. but they are damn hard to pair nicely, at least for me. the original robbio dungeon thirst looks like a stolen cappelli fabric. somewhere on my laptop i should still have pictures of all the stolen thirsts.

 

[ConchitaWurst]

for a time i was sort of dividing formal/business with english tailor and more casual with italian,

aaah you are like the euro voxsartoria! and you also have moneyed wife. well done. you also have tumblr with nice black and white pictures?

No no you misunderstand me. It's a Cappelli original and not a stolen thirst.

t4 has the same with robbio dungeon label

No not a man whore like mat fan and cacarutti. But I do appreciate their ingenuity in this regard.

sorry to hear. that means hard work for you too to be important bespoker. in my next life i'll definitely become a man whore.

 

[FriendCustomer]

I have a very big soft spot for the whole English old boy look. Imo there is no way to replicate that look in Italy and I don't understand why one would want to. Love those flat heavy lesser fabrics, swelled chest, club lunches (and ties), country life, pipes, dandruff and whiskey. But it's generally despised by the fairer sex at least where I'm from. The Italian is so much more sexy. No?

 

[ConchitaWurst]

that's why there is so much ghey sechs in those engrish circles. women just don't appreciate it. they like the sechsi eyatalian look. agree that replicating is not what you should aim for. but the older eyetalian sarto's - not the insta generally favour the heavier engrish fabrics too. i'm personally quite taken with the look of the older umbrian gentlemen.

Nice slots, but why no dimple? That's also the first lavender shirt I've seen that doesn't look cheap.

 

[ConchitaWurst]

it's a tie that's hard to dimple nicely. i get that with more tie-your-tie ties. the fabric is pretty nice though, and because it's not pressed flat at the bottom it's a bit more three dimensional (i agree this is total anal tie talk) which i like. so that's why i've kept it in the rotation.

I have two tie-your-tie ties, and although they make a slightly bigger knot than my drakes, they do take a dimple quite easily after a couple of wears. You kinda have to force it the first time though. I'm a big fan of the more 3D look as well.

thanks. next time i'll use the force

The seam on the inside of the coat cuff is unusual, isn't it? Doesn't it usually fold over directly to the lining? Was this let out or otherwise ran out of fabric?

ConchitaWurst and FriendCustomer, swap ties and how that looks.

Navy and lavender, very nice. Spring-y.

suggestion about tie swap is a good one

i don't understand what you mean about the seam. do these pictures help?

 

[BLSoda]

ConchitaWurst - high five for the purp! I wore something similar a few years ago. Not really a fan of the gingham with such a conservative/non-summer suit.

 

[Thruth]

thanks guys for the purple solidarity! today slightly brighter than navy suit with a bit of sheen; NonVintageNonRobbioNotStolenVeryEnglish™ woven thirst; TackyPlacketyStripyUnshirt™; oxblood bootees

Ah, I was seeing that stitching which appears to be a blind hem. I mistook it for a pieced bodge (because I have an old jacket like that).

I like all these checked shirts. Thank you for not wearing them with striped ties.

 

[LelandJ]

Nice to not see bingo pics here unlike SF.

Nope.

Waiting for a client...

^
BINGO! Least colors aren't loud and still looks good.

Why? Haha.

Classical Greek proportions or such.

 

[Russell Street]

Yes, one less pattern would improve this. Each item pairs nicely, but it's a bit busy. Especially like the muted square with that coat.

 

[Thruth]

i agree a reduction of pattern would be better

LOL TACKY
why tie swap when you can cum swap

 

[LKP]

speaking of swaps

 

[Journeyman]

^ LKP - Looking nice, although personally I would have worn different socks - perhaps blue or green in colour.

 

[ConchitaWurst]
