    reputable tailor Northern Colorado?

    Mondo, It is currently at the tailor but I will post some for you when it is finished next week. When I went in to be fitted, the lady couldn't believe that it was a 1939 Tuxedo. Of course I showed her the dated tag. She kept saying, "This is in such beautiful condition!" "Amazing, these are...

    Edward, I contacted Darcy Clothing and asked about their "sizing" and they say it is "loose". I am a 15 23/33 but when looking to order the Marcella front collared shirt http://www.darcyclothing.com/shop/shirts/evening-shirts/marcella-front-wing-collar-evening-shirt-sh231.html It only allows...

    reputable tailor Northern Colorado?

    I will try a search and see what I come up with. I didn't know if there was someone who knew vintage and fits that you all might know of and suggest versus some "gal or guy on 10th St." approach :-) Thank you for the timely response!

    Tuxedo and accompanying attire...

    Thank you for the quick replies! I'm familiar with self tie bow ties and wouldn't be caught dead in a clip on :) I would like to find the pointed collar starch front shirt, and the studs if I can source them. I was thinking black cap toe oxfords with a high shine if that will be sufficient...

    Coffee Grinders

    Vitanola, With your recommendation for either of those grinders, do have a certain model/size you recommend over others? Looking around, I see there are different numbered models #0, #3 etc. and I don't know how to tell the difference. Also, how easy is it to find/source parts for them. I have...

    Your favorite movie quotes

    That one is awesome Lizzie- Monkey Business is one of my all time fave Marx Brothers films. They're all pretty good but I think that the older Paramount pictures don't get as much attention (comic genius credit) as some of the MGM ones. Shame too. The Paramount movies are beyond funny, and...

The kidnappers think he's loaded but find out that he only has $.015 on his person. They go to Mr. Benny's bank and everyone in the bank asks with peculiar surprise, "He wants to...

    Your favorite movie quotes

    "I never forget a face, but in your case I'll make an exception". Has to be a Marx Bros film but I can't remember which:( That is a Groucho quote. Most likely said to Chico. The Marx Brothers are pretty untouchable with regard to wit and one liners. W.C. Fields was pretty good too. I can't...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Royal Wedding starring Fred Astaire and Jane Powell, with Peter Lawford. I have been drawn to Fred Astaire movies of late. He is such an amazing performer, and I can't take my eyes off of his feet. Good stuff!
