    Do you think it is sexy if a man dresses in Vintage clothes?

    Surely, then, we are saying that it's nice for a guy to dress nicely than necessarily wear vintage..?

    Gorgeous! We've been after something similar for our flat for ages. We just missed out on a gentleman's wardrobe recently, complete with drawers labelled 'handkerchiefs', 'ties' and 'shirts' :)
