Hi

I admit to being stylishly handicapped, BUT I'd never wear most of that page. You could use the morning jacket for prisoners who'd been bad in prison.

I agree, the models look embarrassed, I know I would be.

Price: Originally $1,200 (hah!) marked down to $480. Let's watch the price of this go down while the price of phoney Michael Jackson hats goes up.

"BB4" and "BB5"?

What the hell kind of sizes are those?

There isn't even anywhere to click to explain them.

What outstanding salesmanship. I guess the appeal is elite and couture - if you're not built like a runway prettyboy, you are not Their Customer.

It seems to me that BB is trying to expand their customer base by introducing the Milano line of suits to appeal to European/Italian tastes, and the Black Fleece collection to appeal to ass-holes. They may have a good idea, but I haven seen the advertising to support these new lines of clothing. Also, given that these two new lines are at opposite ends of the fashion spectrum, I would think that introducing them both at the same time would cause some confusion, at best.

That's what that jibberish meant! I don't think I ever would have figured it out on my own. :p

...I can only think of one reason you'd need to know.

Someone stop him.

I'm really not sure when one would wear a madras morning coat.

Some of those sweaters aren't bad, though... [huh]
