    Finally, my first "real" fedora!

    Cool fed, love the ribbon! :cool: My first "real" fedora was an Akubra Bogart in a carbon grey

    Japanese selvage Denim

    Wow, I like all of them, but the Edwins are fantastic.

    Vintage Sunglasses

    In complete agreement with you, Mike, I have a pair of Ray Ban Aviators and they were definitely worth the money I spent. Mine have graduated blue lenses and gold wire frames, sans sweatbar. Unfortunately I recently vomited all over them (I'm 19, so the occasional drunk night is to be expected)...

    Can this suit pass as vintage?

    I may not be of too much help, but I have seen some edwardian lounge suits bearing that exact style of stripe (from era photos, of course). As for construction, it definitely exudes "sack coat' vibes to me, and I could imagine you as a very dapper edwardian gentleman with that on your torso...

    The Dusty Pink parade

    Dusty pink. WOW. To be honest, it seems like it'd be an amazing hat colour for what is an amazing hat and rather obviously a brave wearer. It's an individual, standing out from the greys and browns (which I have nothing against and indeed, wear) without being eccentric or foppish, thanks to the...

    A stupid question about ties

    Yes, I needed an avatar, and my face rarely turns up in photos, so it was either this or Rorshach, and I believe a fellow member or two have already beaten me to that rather brutal punch. Besides, people see Napoleon and they can know that whatever I type must be bright :rolleyes: As for your...

    When did belts replace braces?

    I wouldn't be so sure of that. As someone who's always curious, I've looked over a wide range of fashion shows (Hugo Boss, Burberry, Prada, Ralph Lauren, and Jean-Paul Gaultier who's collections are good if you're looking for a laugh) and I don't remember seeing braces on a single one. As for...

    Handkerchiefs and Pocket Squares

    Back when I first discovered Pocket Squares, I always wore a flat fold, as it was simple and looked safe to my (at that point) cautious eyes. Nowadays, my pocket squares usually get folded in points or a puff, depending on the outfit, always with enough imperfection and rush to look natural. In...

    A stupid question about ties

    Thanks Orsini, every little piece of info is treasured on my end. I've started to study the various components of jacket and trouser design, but I'm still a novice (especially when it comes to things like ties, in case you didn't notice). I'm really appreciating the help guys, I know I need it.

    A stupid question about ties

    Thanks Tomasso, I've been looking for a photo to illustrate my point. I have since by chance come across an article (I've been searching before, but it wasn't until about 10 minutes ago that I found a relevant piece) and I have found my answer. That stitch was indeed one of the stitches I was...

    A stupid question about ties

    Thanks for the prompt reply, I can't take a photo right now as my camera's out of the house at this stage, but I'll be sure to take a photo and upload within about 24 hours, hopefully less. The main reason I've asked is that the thread seems to be slowly loosening on the ends of its own accord...

    A stupid question about ties

    Hey guys, it's my first post on this here lounge, so please be gentle. I recently purchased a gold/navy blue repp stripe tie from Polo Ralph Lauren (I'm not THAT vintage, I'm here for the feds and the knowledge you may be able to impart). When I brought it home, I noticed a thread of fabric...
