I've been very ill recently with some awful cold/flu hybrid disease. I went walking today to try and clear the cobwebs and got a few good photos of the suit I wore:
It was made in 1960 by 'Lesley and Roberts, 16 St. George Street, Hanover Square, London'.
Oddly despite the jacket being fairly spacious the waistcoat and trousers are tight around the waist. I'll have to have them taken out by my seamstress who has worked wonders with the clothes I've taken to her before. Sadly it's a bit mothed and dirty but it's only really saved for occasions such as these so it's levels of smartness are never really in question.
It's missing a few buttons too in places but I repaired the middle button on the jacket. It's also got working cuff-buttons on the first two along with a fairly hefty cotton lining with silk in the sleeves. The jacket is a 2 on 3 with remarkably classic cut throughout. I can only assume it was made for a very traditional gent' indeed.
And the cigarettes? Gauloises Brunes without filters. Sheer bliss if I've ever bought it outside of vintage clothing/general objects.
Edit: Missed my favourite photo - the second.
Really good looking, good choice to use a walking stick.
