    Would it be wrong to put a silk hanky in the breast pocket?

    The Vintage Tailoring Thread

    Yeah, the first rule of selecting a jacket is if the shoulders aren't right, take a pass. The rational being that the fix is way to problematic and costly to take a chance.

    The Vintage Tailoring Thread

    Well, the trousers will be relatively easy, it's the shoulders that can be tricky. It's really a job for a bespoke caliber tailor rather than an alterations tailor or a seamstress. And then you'd want a guy who has made a lot of natural shoulders. If you've got that guy and the cash then give it...

    The Vintage Tailoring Thread

    The alterations you suggest will run a few hundred dollars. Are you sure the suit is worth that kind of investment?

    'Convertible' collar shirts" Trelegant by Walbusch

    Not bad. I vaguely recall seeing that setup at one of the shirt makers I've visited over the years. Maybe one of the Italians.

    Show off the sports coats.

    White (cream) flannels would be perfect for the LA winters. Summers, not so much. Of course YMMV.

    'Convertible' collar shirts" Trelegant by Walbusch

    I thought a convertible collar was a one piece affair as opposed to the two piece band/stand and leaf setup.

    Mikhail Kalashnikov - Obituary

    Well, he lived a long life.......while his invention shortened the lives of millions. Saddest part is that he received no royalties.

    Try Lake Bluff, just up the North Shore from Evanston. Very sleepy yet a reasonable commute for the missus. Your poor wife.

    1936 Bespoke Burberrys Equestrian Horse Riding Jacket

    No problem, my bad for not using an emoticon. Lazziness on my part as the phone I'm using makes posting most smilies a bit of a chore.:(

    1936 Bespoke Burberrys Equestrian Horse Riding Jacket

    Yeah....so much for dry humor on the interweb. :o I was going to add (in jest) that the different mounts found on the two labels differentiated RTW (horse) from bespoke (unicorn) but thought better of it.

    1936 Bespoke Burberrys Equestrian Horse Riding Jacket

    While they both depict the mounted knight, they are clearly two different labels. This knight is riding a horse: This knight is riding a unicorn.

    1936 Bespoke Burberrys Equestrian Horse Riding Jacket

    Sorry but the labels look different to my eye. And the label in the coat looks too new and the sewing looks a bit dodgy. Also, the other label with the date and customer name does not have 'Burberrys' printed on it. It is the practice of most bespoke tailors to print their name (and address)...

    Don't know about that label.........

    1932 Dated check pattern 3 piece suit

    Nicely made. I've done a sportcoat in that cloth but couldn't do a suit, much less a 3piece.
