AN ESSAY IN ATTITUDES
Nice combo, very well played!
Perfection!
Didn't I see that combo on "Affordable Wardrobe" last week?
My heart beats a little bit faster when I see a man dressed like that.
Buttonhole is a bit low on the lapel to wear a boutonniere, no?dE
Dear Cod--Please do for neckties what you have done for lapels.Thanks.
Presumably button hole is top button on a 3-B jacket. (?)The stitched-down lapels are interesting. Reminiscent of Victorian-Edwardian detailing. (And a nice alternative to pick-stitch*.) *which is showing up on cheap clothes, apparently done by machine. No longer an indication of fine handwork.
That collar's not rolling right, must be a newer version [something after 1945]. Knot-to-collar ain't rat neither. Looks like Lands End. C'mon.
Anon @ 15:42 ~ Yes, you are right, it is the top buttonhole on a Brooks Brothers suit jacket with a 3/2 roll.
