    FS Allen Edmonds Broadstreet Spectators 10D

    As to sizing, they would be the same as J&M. I've had both and noticed no difference. I believe that you can see that the heel wear is very slight, and would not affect the wearer. If you were very concerned you could have the heel caps replaced. These shoes have not been worn enough to affect...

    Spear point collar shirts

    How would these dimensions differ from a shirt with attached collar. I can't get the stand and collar depth correct on the Luxire shirts that I have had made. I don't know if "collar depth" is the correct term. I intend to say the dimension that you show 4 cm. Collar dimensions...

    Formal Wear Primer

    I'm just guessing, but I think that it's a formal evening shirt, white tie not black tie (tuxedo). If it were my size, I'd love to have it.

    Looking For a Formal Fedora

    You might want to look a the Black Tie Guide. thttp://www.blacktieguide.com. A lot of very useful information covering both Black and White Tie.

    Is a black waistcoat acceptable with White Tie?

    If you want a simple answer, it's NO. White tie is a very rigid style of dress that dates to the early 19 century. There is no allowance for individualism.

    Question about your shoes?

    The only 1.5" heels that I'm aware of are latin dance shoes or western boots. Modern latin dance shoes as well as vintage may have 1.5" heels. There may have been short lived fads, but I know nothing about them.

    1920s suits

    I'd wear tennis shoes if we could get shoes similar to those.

    What are you wearing today??

    You had said that you'd be in Chile, so the photo must be in Viña. Have a glass of wine for me.

    Starching Detachable Collars

    Having a thin cloth to protect the collar will not allow a proper polish to be applied. I believe that I've solved the scotching problem. I'm working on my wing collars and, as Esteban mentioned, they require a lot of starch. I'm attempting to get enough starch into the collar. I'm confident...

    Starching Detachable Collars

    I attempted to starch and polish my collars a couple of time, with moderate success. The main problem is while polishing the collars I scorch the outer edges slightly. Since the edges are thicker than the body of the collar, the majority of the pressure is on the edge. How do I solve this...

    Not to be political but.THIS IS WRONG

    I don't like the idea of using the US Flag as any type of advertising image.

    Luxire made a pair of trousers that I'm happy with.
