    College wardrobe

    True, but the catalogue description would have been composed decades later, and an archivist, say in the 1950s, may have tagged them as "Oxford Bags" simply because they were historic. What needs to be found is contemporary (1890s) evidence referring to the trousers as bags. Plus, there is...

    I agree! On another note, I found this academic article on Princeton and college fashion.... http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/store/10.1111/j.1542-734X.2008.00661.x/asset/j.1542-734X.2008.00661.x.pdf;jsessionid=364D5420387965323C1161EFDFFDD784.d02t04?v=1&t=h1gvw348&e8493472

    Nope, I have several posts in that thread.... While the Oxford Rowing team discussion is thought provoking, I just wish there was more photos and catalog scans of wide legged 1920s-1930s with obscure details for me to poach and reproduce!

    Greenspan's French Toes Shoes

    For christmas my wife gave me gift certificates to Revamp Vintage clothing in Los Angeles and Greenspan's in South Gate. It actually is kind of funny, since Revamp and Greenspan's represent different poles of the vintage spectrum. Today I decided to put both certificates to use. At...

    Hair cuts

    Thanks, Omar even fashioned the blend to give it a less uniform and more period-accurate appearance, a touch often over looked by contemporary barbers!

    Hair cuts

    A Dozen Years of Haircuts When I first got into vintage livin' back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, my hair was full and thick. I grew it long and kept it long, visiting a local barber three or four times a years. As the years past, I noticed my hair getting increasingly thinner, and my...

    Enough to make a grown FLer cry. Tell us your worst finds or ruined clothing stories

    I have a pair of baby blue 1950s gab slacks that I kept in a bin where I store clothing that need alterations. As I was moving stuff around, I laid a computer printer on top of the uncovered bin. I didn't notice the printer had shifted to it's side slightly, and black ink came dripping out...

    Pomade

    I just got my hair cut last week, and my barber styled it with "Let's Jam." Even though it is not a 'vintage-themed' product, he stated it is water soluble, will keep you hair shiny, and won't flake up like Layrite.

    Having some trouble with my Indy Magnoli suit

    Firstly, congrats! Secondly, a skilled tailor should be able to take your slacks in from the rear seam, but also at the front pleats as well so as not to interrupt the lines of your trousers.
