    The Suits you see on Ebay? Any tips?

    Yes - avoid them.

    Show us your suits

    That is unusual for UK at that time: One wonders if it was a model solely for the US Market.

    Show us your suits

    Does it have a British label? Two back pockets in a 1950s British pair of trousers is very unusual.

    Show us your suits

    The following would help: Front and rear views of trousers without coat but showing your feet with shoes on. Front and rear views with coat on but with your hands by your sides, not in crucifixion mode Without these it is difcult to be fair to you.

    Suit and coat color matching

    Are you suggesting that we should have as many colours of coats as suits? Surely most people will have to compromise - are you saying that is plain wrong?

    Can I get this fabric in modern times?

    Certainly modern and I suspect that visiting a few ddecnt tailors (not mall) shops would find it.

    Dating DB Overcoat

    Relatively modern - the style of the inner pocket is not 50 years old. Could well be Eastern European.

    Yet Another My Custom Tailor Suit

    Very nice, it looks good on you. The only exception is that the trousers appear a tad long. Maybe the other views without coat or waist coat would help to see why?

    Yet Another My Custom Tailor Suit

    Are you going to post photographs of the garment - including the jacket interior? Photographs say so much more than words.

    Matt Deckard Apparel

    Perhaps without the jacket being worn at all to show off the splendour of MD offerings.

    A Japanese full bespoke

    That looks a fine suit - what inner pockets did he provide in the coat?

    The Demise of the Summer Suit

    Max Flash Did your experiment with the linen suit ever happen?

    Travel Suits (airport and waiting around)

    What has a business trip got to do with not wanting to wear a pair of jeans and a tee shirt. This is modern twenty first century travelling - not glamorous, not even enjoyable. Dress to reflect that so that after three hours delay etc so can abandon your jeans and put on fresh clothes etc...

    Dillinger Days at work by myself

    Maybe you should ask yourslef whether this garb amounts to fancy dress or even affectation in the work place?

    What era does this suit convey to the forum?

    1950s if you are lucky.

    Is a Dinner Jacket too much for a Cocktail Party?

    There is a vast difference between "vintage" and wearing a dinner jacket - the are not equals at all. Whilst phoning you host is one thing, he or she may be too polite to say no, yet you would turn up out dressing them and doubtless every other person present. Wear some vintage day dress...

    Can this suit pass as vintage?

    No. It looks just like what you describe - an 80s/90s abomination.Doubtless there was some influence in its 'designer' to be kind to the person from somewhere in the past but it really does not pass muster - Either save your money or rue wasting it.

    suspender buttons outside or in?

    I would take little or no notice of Bown and his affectations - given that he does not even admit that he gets the garments he reviews for nothing on the strength of the advertising value of his site he devalues all he rants about.
