    Purchase Vintage vs. New, and all the above

    After reading through some older posts as well as more recent, I thought it would be nice to see where we stand on purchasing the majority of our suits/dresses/accessories, etc. 1. Vintage Only = aged clothing, probably used or NOS. 2. Thrift Store Finds = could be old or new, you're looking...

    What Sort of Vintage Enthusiast Are You?

    I'm somewhere around a #2: 2) Vintage Inspired: This person wears modern clothing that seems vintage or has a vintage flair based on how it is put together. This person probably wears a lot of Ralph Lauren suits and leafs through the J. Peterman catalogue hoping that he will copy Cary Grant's...

    The new Mullett

    Yep. Makes me wonder why someone really bothers to go to that extent to look messy. :eusa_doh: Honestly? It just doesn't make sense to me. There are far easier and cheaper methods to looking unkempt.

    America in 1910

    Wow, astute observation! It's funny (and terrible) how history tends to repeat itself.

    SO glad I found this place, need help finding a suit...please.

    Bing is actually pretty classy here, and most likely comfortable. Double Breasted seersucker with peak lapels (or quite possibly light summer wool with quarter lining), white boater, good neck tie, maybe some coordinated spectators and you would be looking real sharp. Drop a quarter and you'd...

    A confused soon-to-be-suit-wearer asks...

    Nearly what I was thinking! I say go custom for the first, and thrift-shop for the second. You will win in both cases, as there are some real gems out there for next-to-nothing.

    Softening a hard face / severe physique

    I'll wear any pastel, so long as it coordinates well with my suit and tie. [huh] In fact, I tend to prefer pastels and whites over hard colors like red and blue. btw, I'm 6'3" and built. Maybe that's why no one has said anything? lol

    Any writers?

    Yeah...I'm really, really, REALLY nervous about the whole query letter thing. In fact, my skin crawls just thinking about how terrible the constant rejection will feel. Oh sure, I will still send the letter, but I guess I'd better start drinking now. :(

    Haha, well, now that we've picked these bones clean, anyone else have some facts needing corrected? lol

    First timer advise.

    ADVICE FOR ALL COLLEGE STUDENTS NEW TO HATS When I first started purchasing fedoras, I wanted a high quality hat but had little money. Here's my suggestion: Open the phone book of any larger town/city near you and look through their men's clothing yellow pages. Try to write down every...

    What do you think of modern "Street/Punk" Fedoras?

    You know, I did too when I used to wear my little black cotton from Wally World. And now, I still have people asking me questions, but I think for the most part, people are intimidated and see my fedora as either a status symbol, or eccentricity.

    Hat color for navy blazer

    The Big Sticky Here's some images you could research regarding color matching.

    Facebook anybody?

    I think everyone in my family has recommended this to me in one fashion or another, with the additional, "You could use it if you ever got in a wreck," suggestion. I think my problem is that I would be better off living in a Montana cabin with nothing but great expanse on each side, and room...

    Facebook anybody?

    Don't have one, won't have one. Same goes for cell phones. Don't need one, won't use one. [huh]

    What do you think of modern "Street/Punk" Fedoras?

    I particularly like that last picture.

    What do you think of modern "Street/Punk" Fedoras?

    I feel your pain there! :rolleyes: Although, when I used to be in the business, they would eventually move from Moscato d'Astis to sweet rieslings, to fruity chardonnays, to merlot - and then back to beer, forever to swear off wine. lol Perhaps the same thing could happen here? "punk"...
