What kind of hat is this?
Yeah, it's just been smashed in. Should be easy to fix, though it might need to be reblocked by a hatter. -
Lime green pants!
There's a guy here in the DC area named Matthew Lesko who has dubbed himself Mr. Info and has written books on how to get free money and grants out of the federal government. I've seen him at events around town, and he's usually wearing some garish outfit covered in question marks: -

Sister thread to Dagwood's too busy thread
The easiest way to do it is to buy a shirt that has a similar pattern to one of your ties (i.e., a striped shirt to go with a striped tie), but in a different scale. If you have a tie with widely-spaced stripes, get a shirt with a fine, close-set stripe. Also, look at old Apparel... -

Nice hat. To my amateur eye, it looks like a Cuenca Brisa--If I'm interpreting the vueltas and the weave pattern correctly. -

Proper Suit Care (Vintage and Modern)
Even when you send your shirts out to the cleaners, they're laundered--not dry cleaned. The process isn't nearly as hard on shirts as dry cleaning is on suits. However, what is hard on them is starch and the machine pressing that most cleaners subject shirts to. You're better off laundering... -
Cloth vs. Leather Sweatband
I don't know about hats, but your undershirt issue is probably due to your deodorant, not your sweat. Using a non-antiperspirant deodorant that doesn't have aluminum oxide in it can help reduce the incidence of underarm stains.
