Heavenly Madras Morning Suit Score

[fluteplayer07]

Simply fantastic, Gene! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

I wish the thrift stores and antique stores around me were as good as the ones by you!

I guess you had to sacrifice the cuffs for length?

Formal and semi-formal trousers never take cuffs. But you may have known that already--I'm not sure what your smiley is intended to convey.

Oh, it's just a common experience Gene and I share that we almost always have to get rid of the cuffs on those nice vintage pants...

Congratulations!

Looks great Gene! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
I have two Frock Coats(late 19th Century and 1907 Dbl Breasted) also and wondering about proper shirts, collars and tie too.

Gene, the suit looks great, but I really like the floor lamp next to your leather chair...very cool.

Thanks, folks!!

Yeah, that lamp is a helluva piece. I was lucky to score it.

CUFFS!?! shakeshead Not on these britches! But it IS really a lucky break that these are long enough for me as they are. I take 30 x 34 in jeans (32-1/2" in actual measure when I get dress pants altered). I have to use the braces to hike these morning dress trousers UP. The preacher who originally wore these must have been one stand-out Englishman among the Indians back in his day.
