Hey Dinerman,

I've seen many of your posts on this thread and I'm impressed with your collection and style. It seems pretty courageous to buck the trend of your peers, especially when it comes to clothes and hats other than ball caps.

I am curious as to the reaction of your fellow students. Some of your photos depict you as a popular fellow. Has your knack for keen dressing rubbed off on any of your classmates and caused them to step it up a bit?

Keep up the good work!

Cheers,

Church

Thanks!
At this point, everyone at school either knows me, or knows who I am (you know- that kid with the hat) so no one bats an eye when I come in dressed the way I do. Most of my friends are pretty individualistic as well, so, while they don't dress in the same way I do, they don't conform much to the norm of the school. I've got friends who dress goth, punk, hippy, you name it. I run in a pretty artistic crowd, painters, musicians, theater cast and crew, and we do what we want, regardless of the norm.

My style hasn't really rubbed off on my friends. I have a friend who has a castoff overcoat of mine that didn't fit me, but it looks completely different on her. My girlfriend wears vintage jewelry, some of which I've found for her, but with modern clothes.

Interesting D'Man.

There is a photo in the Jan 08 issue of GQ of a young man in vintage dress who I believe to be fellow lounger "Mr. Rover". The caption below the photo reads: "Be Your Own Man" "It takes a lot more balls for a young guy to dress like this these days than just throwing on another ironic tee and a pair of skinny jeans. This kid is building a persona through his wardrobe."

Pretty good press I thought. I believe the quote applies to you as well.

Cheers,

Church

This little beaver baby is in mint condition> If you ever saw the film, "Far From Heaven," well the lead actor wears this hat style, and appropriately enough, this hat is pretty close to heaven as it happens!!








Very different look for you, Paddy. I like the 50s look on you more than the 30s/40s, actually.

Today's hat is my new Akubra Squatter. The first pic shows the color well.

I tried an Indy-style bash, but settled on this teardrop style. It's a great hat for our recent snowy weather.

Regards,
