I like these ideas, keeps the rural spirit of the garment. The denim might make them less stuffy. What type of Oxford shirt? Crisp plain white or a pattern?

Picked up this 1950s Harris Tweed jacket yesterday, with what I thought was an interesting color and pattern. I'm not exactly sure what to call said pattern? Oddly it looks black and white up close and in photos, but when I put it on appears to be a medium brown. How do you guys wear these...

Would a dark navy work? What color do you think the gentlemen in the picture is wearing?

I absolutely love the bottle green sport shirt on Cathcart London, and just pulled the trigger on one recently. The attached photo of a WW2 soldier on leave inspired me, but I don't know what color pants to pair it with. Would a charcoal gray wool pant be a bad combination? Is brown a better...

I've seen the Wrangler Cowboy Cut 13WMZ advertised as high waisted at 11 1/8" , but I've seen some sites call that mid rise but the standards of yesteryear. In the 1940s and 1950s how high was the rise? What do you consider high rise?

Interested in size 34r or even 36r vintage mens odd trousers. Colors could be navy, brown, or light/charcoal gray.

I'm looking for the right color/pattern sports coat to pair with charcoal gray dress pants and a black dress shirt. I get that those colors don't have the greatest contrast with each other but I like the combination. Just need to right sports coat! Any help would be appreciated. Attached...

Attached a few photos of Burt Lancaster on a black dress shirt, maybe military issue? I'm wondering what kind of suit or blazer he would be wearing to make said black shirt work? What colors could this likely have been?

Just smooth silver. Nothing engraved.

Hello! This is my first post. Over the past weekend I picked up this black vintage overcoat at a local vintage store, it was simply marked "French Military" and the owner wasn't sure about the specific period it came from. Any help from members here in indentifying the coat would be...
