    dale howard shirt help

    To be honest, the kind of person who would follow the fashions of somebody from Big Brother would be the same kind of person who follows any trend, irregardless of how stupid they look. Thankfully, there's not too many of them floating about, and next week they'll have found something else to wear

    Are cell phones the new pocket watch?

    Not a replacement for a wrist watch for me. If I want to see the time, I want to just have to glance at my wrist, not faff about taking something out of a pocket

    Wearing jacket cuff buttons undone

    I read somewhere that it is considered ostentatious and vulgar-most OTR don't have functioning buttons-and shows off that your suit is bespoke and that you're rich. In Britain, showing off your wealth isn't the done thing. Might be allowed in the States though, you guys are a bit more showy ;)

    That was the point I was trying to get across. K&A don't have any fitting dates in the immediate future, so I'm gonna have to wait out. I phoned them up, and they say that you can customise it pretty much as much as you want. pockets, vents, high/low armholes, colour, pattern, and they even...

    Old Building ?

    If he wants to just rebuild it, using the same layout etc, surely that's better than leaving it to rot? And MILES better than some hideous "modern architecture" crap

    As long as it's a nice suit, I don't mind if it's M2M or true Bespoke. Most people can't tell the difference when they see someone wearing one, meaning the only difference to non-satorial-experts is the price

    Show us your Guns!

    Strictly speaking, none of these are guns A gun is either an artillery piece, or a massive thing mounted onto a ship

    Is it 2008 or 1958?? - Retro marriage, 21st century-style

    Surely if enough women stayed at home, it would all be possible to live off one income again? Fewer workers, more demand=higher wages

    What's Your Take on Modern Men's Fashion (Not Talkin About Tieless Busi- Casual Crap)

    I do that at work sometimes, stops cufflinks knocking against the desk as I type. And of course, there's no such thing as a shirt without french cuffs

    I think I'm going to try out King & Allen. I need a new suit anyway, and if it isn't that great, it's only a bit more than a decent OTR suit would cost anyway Edward, what was that lawsuit about?

    Briefcases

    I have a brown leather one, similar to Don's in Mad Men. Basically its soft, opens at the top, 2 compartments inside. I'll get a pic up at some point. Far more practical than a hard one, if I need to get to my water on the tube there's no problem, and I have on compartment for work files, the...

    Hats aplenty on the bus

    Seems that's becoming an international problem, I thought it was just our home grown chavs! And as for hats, this summer I've noticed loads of straw hats on public transport, admittedly mostly on tshirt wearing types, but a few worn with blazer and trousers work attire.
