The men's dress style thread..

Sooo 'dandyesque' I'd say!! I suppose it's the hat you'd wear with an off white seersucker or linen suit, in the height of summer, though I think pale pink or lilac would also go very well with it!!

I like the olive shade of green! Not only that, but it has a ribbon around the edge of the brim, which to me makes the hat look tidier.

On the subject of suits, I've just ordered the one below. Well, not really as I fed my weight, height etc details in and it came up with that size, but why ask those questions when I could've just typed in that size anyway? 🤔 I like that summer suit and Brook Taverner deliver in a day or so and let you send items back, no questions asked. It's one to bear in mind when the warmer months get closer. I don't think I'll see many other summer three piece suites around here! So if I want to stand out peacock style, then that's the thing to buy!!

Why is their model wearing a suit clearly too small for him?

I do have a rather nice pale linen suit though it's only really appropriate on rare occasions. My dark blue linen suit I wore a lot

I think the suit is a slim fit and slightly short in the arms and legs suits are 'in' now. I think the suit in the pics fits the model well. Besides, didn't baggy ill fitting white or summer suites go out with the ex news reporter, ex MP Martin Bell?

Wearing that - I'd watch out for snakes and rolling boulders, if I were you

I know that a fitted sillouette is a very traditional British look for suits, but that looks a bit too skinny for my tastes. I like a bit more lapel too although I don't normally go full 70s.

I've got a couple of pale linen suits. The newest one came from Cordings and looks great. I toyed with the idea of getting a more 'practical' darker one but where would be the fun in that. I normally manage to get a few outings in it a year so it's not doing too badly.

The other one is a lightweight wool number that came from the sale at Hackett. I usually wear that one in the summer when I have to go into the office and want to avoid being steamed alive on the train.

I like hats all of a sudden. These are the two I currently own

I've always tended to the street urchin end of things when wearing a cap , annoyingly my mate really suits one but hates them.

 

[FishFright]

You wouldn’t know what my taste is. I might be as full on pimp as him for all you know.
Somewhere in the dim and distant past I posted a few ideas, but there‘s very little point now.
As with many threads, they become a cult of personality - even feeding the birds becomes about clobber. I’m just utterly bored of the narcissism.

Then why keep posting in the thread ? Unfollow and save yourself the heartache .

I think I've tried every shape, style and cloth of flat cap. I always look more Ted than Ralph.

I found and bought these in the retro clothing shop I work in today. Elasticated metal armbands for holding your shirt sleeves up if they are too long. I usually have a 'not long enough' problem, but I think they look a bit different.

 

[Gunk]

At that price?

Only if you want to look like you are just off the set of "Shaft"

You’d feel shafted paying that for a hat

Don’t you have to work in a hick-town newspaper office to wear those ?
