    What are you wearing today??

    I just got in a blue serge suit from speakeasyman. It's patterned off of an original from the late teens early 20s.

    To suit or not to suit?

    IMO, linen, cotton and silk. Just do as men used to and wear the lighter fabrics and colors in warmer climates. I live in Maine and I still break out linen and cotton I. The summer. If I were I. Your position. I'm afraid I would end up looking like a British colonist with more optima panamas...

    Spectator Shoes

    It all depends my friend what part of what decade you prefer! Often the only time the bottoms of my trousers touch my shoes is if I'm wearing late 20s early 30s ones and that is only brushing the top.

    What are you wearing today??

    It was hard to tell in the photo and you had the look about you like you might have worn a blue or grey suit at some point. And as far as shoes like that in the Edwardian they are a pretty basic derby style shoe albeit a bit rough but still.

    What are you wearing today??

    Ralph Lauren "1929" belted back linen cotton blend jacket with patch pockets (even has a cute Palm Beach rip off label on it). It seems to be quite correct in my opinion...even has the correct shoulder seam and higher arm holes I would expect to see in a late 20s jacket.

    Gentlemen, show us what you've made!

    HBK I would buy patterns of your stuff if you made them as I can not afford your actual tailoring as much as I would like to.
