What are you wearing today??

[flat-top]

From the same day as the collage with Dinerman
My other new purchase: Polo Ralph Lauren knit vest. The wool is thick and itchy: perfect for a vintage feel.

Wow!! You nailed it there FFF!! I need a vest like that!

Why do I even bother? Sorry for wasting your time, folks.

Your posts are never time-wasters!!

And very nice look, FFF!

1950s Penney's Marathon, and the rest of the outfit are modern.

This is what I'm wearing today!...Or rather...tomorrow. It's the Melbourne Pen Show, and I'm gonna be dressing up period for my vintage desktop table-exhibit at the Show.

I had originally considered wearing BLACK for the show (it's a pen show, there will be ink, black hides potential stains, etc), but I figured that considering my period-style display for this year, it might look too..."victorian"...which wasn't the angle I was going for. This look seemed to me, to be more 1920s/30s/Depression era, which is more what I was shooting for.

The picture was great, Dinerman. Workwear layering at it's best. What happened? [huh]

Great cap, Shangas. Hope the pen show was a success and found much interest.

Thank you, BK, flat-top and Splintercellsz.

First post here! Sometimes I dress to match what I'm driving.

Great shot. I enjoy the subtle working class vintage look. What are you driving? Is that a hobby of yours?

 

[fashion frank]

Your pants are what caught my eye, very "old school " looking .

BTW welcome to the Forum .

All the Best, fashion Frank

The truck is a 1948 Ford F6. Old vehicles are my hobby

The pants are wool German WWII M40s. Part of my WWII reenacting uniform.

Some VERY sharp looks today, fellas!

For me, not the best photo, but I am wearing a 50's Penney's Marathon (again), 50's Harris Tweed Overcoat, and modern sweater & shirt.

 

[Metatron]

Some very inspiring shots everyone! But has this thread become a bit male dominated of late? :eeek:

Here are my first contributions to this thread, from last week:

Btw the braces were white silk, dyed beige with tea. How english!

Very good workwear looks here, Metatron. The style feels familar.
Mountain Man, pure class as usual. You just can't go wrong.

All the others looking good too. Seems to be a good time of the year for vintage styles. :eusa_clap
