Based on these prices they are losing quite a bit on his "designs". For gods sake a madras morning coat, what a mess.

I'm at a loss for words. Well, any words that aren't expletives.

 

[Mahagonny Bill]

Wow, even the models look embarrassed.

Funny, WH, but April 1, has long since passed. :eusa_doh:

No, that's just the look guys go for nowadays.

Zoolander had "Blue Steel", this guy has what..."Constipated, Sheepish Turtle".

Hi

I admit to being stylishly handicapped, BUT I'd never wear most of that page. You could use the morning jacket for prisoners who'd been bad in prison.

I agree, the models look embarrassed, I know I would be.

Maybe jeans and tshirts aren't so bad after all.

Price: Originally $1,200 (hah!) marked down to $480. Let's watch the price of this go down while the price of phoney Michael Jackson hats goes up.
lol

I think that jacket just gave me glaucoma.

 

[jawellington]

what about the Thom Brown Trousers?

it is a gambit that did not work. still, i think the Trousers look OK. just overpriced.

"BB4" and "BB5"?

What the hell kind of sizes are those?

There isn't even anywhere to click to explain them.

What outstanding salesmanship. I guess the appeal is elite and couture - if you're not built like a runway prettyboy, you are not Their Customer.

Diworseification

It seems to me that BB is trying to expand their customer base by introducing the Milano line of suits to appeal to European/Italian tastes, and the Black Fleece collection to appeal to ass-holes. They may have a good idea, but I haven seen the advertising to support these new lines of clothing. Also, given that these two new lines are at opposite ends of the fashion spectrum, I would think that introducing them both at the same time would cause some confusion, at best.

Madras should be limited to ties and shirts.

That's what that jibberish meant! I don't think I ever would have figured it out on my own.

...I can only think of one reason you'd need to know.

Someone stop him.

I'm really not sure when one would wear a madras morning coat.

Some of those sweaters aren't bad, though... [huh]

The ties are very tasteful actually.
