    Young loungers

    I know exactly what you're talking about! I have the same problem here. After a while, though, it's easy to ignore everybody's weird stares.

    Do you own a Tux?

    A very helpful and informative website. I own one white tie outift, and one black tie outfit, the latter which is a single-breasted shawl collar with grosgrain lapel facings.

    I found the Lounge while doing one of my many searches on conventions for evening formal wear, on the finger points that I couldn't get from the Black Tie Guide (very respectable guide, by the way). This place popped up recurrently on other searches such as overcoats, and I must say, I'm glad I...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    So true for me as well. I also get quite the mixed bag whenever I go out. These include: "Well, aren't you dressed nicely?" "You look like Inspector Clouseau." "It's not the 1930s, you know." "So classy! I love it!" I also had an older gentleman tip his hat at me. Close-minded people usually...
