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

    In my opinion, sometimes less is best. Rather than painting yourself up like a peacock, the understated, elegant simplicity of the dinner jacket is it's success. In addition, it leaves the lady partner free to get all the attention, with the man's clothes merely complimenting hers.

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

    Aside from Saville Row, has anyone here had any experience with tailors over here? I'm mainly interested in the quality/price ratio

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

    Modern fashion? I hate it. That said, they can be more practical for lazing around, looking after small children etc, activities where a tshirt and jeans are far more useful than suit and tie. Don't want to rip expensive suits!

    What Do You Sound Like?

    North East apparently. Which is odd, as I'm fairly sure I have the ordinary accent of a Londoner. Guess I was wrong.

    Bring back old Hollywood!!

    The classic "train going into the tunnel" cutaway, unlike today where director's are just keen for the actress to take off her top, despite the fact she's often too skinny to even have anything, unlike the real women of 50 years ago or so! (Keira Knightley springs to mind)

    I inherited a coat that may be quite expensive...not sure what to do with it??

    Chances are, if it is really good quality, it won't easilly be damaged and will last many more years!

    Do You Still Use "Golden Age" Products?

    A touch of brylcreem for the old fashioned hair style. Not greasy though. I do have an old fashioned styled safety razor, although of modern make, similar to the one used on the blane by Bond in Goldfinger.

    What do you do for Living?

    Brett, I checked out your site, and saw the bit on pocket watches. Laughed the hardest today when I read " Hell, even Saddam Hussein rocked a pocket square when he was on trial–a man should never defend his war crimes without one."
