What are you wearing today??

[Widebrim]

^^Agree. Excellent.

 

[Widebrim]

Rose: wonderful!
Bigbeard: Great look!
Alan: I really like that combination!

Vintage British suit from the 1950s, vintage Dobbs 20 that I put a diamond bash in, vintage Beau Briummell tie, and black bluchers by Emling. I could have gone with a nicer shirt, but I was mostly taking photos of stuff I will put on ebay later, so the shirt had to work with a variety of jackets, etc.
(I am doing my best to follow the Alan and Orgetorix photo style but without the same level of skill...):

Excellent combination of colors, including that solid necktie!

Thank you!

I don't know why this is but my camera seems to develop a stronger pixelation with age. Maybe it will need some glasses (read: monocle) soon...

 

[sproily]

Dinerman, looks to be a beautiful set of white flannels!!

 

[Shangas]

Hi Dinerman, you look like you have an interesting getup there. Any chance of a full-body shot?

Today wasn't especially warm so I decided to go with my 1937 suit in black herringbone, some modern two-tone shoes, a 1940s Tootal cotton tie in green with white spots within black diamonds and my favourite slip-over. Also pictured is my 1953 Bush wireless set, which is sadly 'not electrically safe' until I can get all the wiring and the cable fixed up.

Please excuse the blurry photographs - my camera seems to hate taking timed photographs in focus for some horrible reason.

This one was unexpected, so I'll have a better one up soon:

I edited the photo a bit, so please ignore the fact that my face is all blurred, I'm new to it.

Also ignore the fact that the pants do not match the vest, and that my hair is messed up, it was windy that day, and I wasn;t wearing hair gel

Nice suit, TTO. I always find that brown & blue go very well together. Pulled it off very nicely.

Today, just to take some pictures around town, have a film developed and buy a waistcoat from the local vintage shop.

-Modern "statement" hat
-40s cravat
-60s suit
-1941 gas mask bag (used as a camera case)
-brown suede brogues

Great shoes!

But what grabbed me most: a lovely smile! You very clearly feel comfortable in your attire.

 

[avedwards]

Went to an open day at the Ministry of Defence earlier wearing this. Only the waistcoat and jacket are vintage.

 

[Scotus]

Bravo! Very good look.

Bravo! Very good look.

Thank you . I'm glad I finally bought that waistcoat (I've been thinking about it for nearly six months) because it's such a useful and versatile piece.

 

[Widebrim]

^^^I agree with the Scotus, Alan. Very fine look. How was the open day?

 

[Widebrim]

Unique style, ACM. What trousers are you wearing (can't quite make them out).

 

[avedwards]

^^^I agree with the others, Alan. Very fine look. How was the open day?

Thanks. It was quite interesting seeing all the different army vehicles. I spoke to a few police officers as well and was able to try out their bullet proof and riot shields as well as get talked through the firearms officers' equipment (interesting as armed police are extremely rare in the UK).
