WTB Vintage Morning Wear
I already have the waistcoat I want in mind, it's actually a buff colored one which I've heard is also correct. I can sew the buttons on, as well, but trousers with them attached saves me a couple bucks at the tailors. Either way is okay, though.- fluteplayer07

WTB Vintage Morning Wear
I've been investigating into several other avenues for this, but I guess it can't hurt to put up a general ad as well... I'm looking for some components of a vintage morning wear outfit for an upcoming event. I need a cutaway coat, and the striped trousers. I wear a size 40R in jackets and a...- fluteplayer07

Formal Wear Primer
I haven't seen Firth's, but Tom Hanks' was splendid. I believe he had a shawl lapel with a double breasted jacket if my memory from last night serves me correctly? On another note, I've been looking for silk laces that are appropriate with patent oxfords... G.J. Cleverley & Co. in the UK has...- fluteplayer07

How to wear a wrist watch?
Where are some good places to buy leather straps? I'm looking for a nice black alligator leather strap for a recently acquired Rolex. This place caught my eye, especially the H-R hornback crocodile model, and the custom made Genesis II. I'm not sure what quality straps generally run, is...- fluteplayer07

Formal Shirt
Where can a formal stiff fronted shirt be laundered? Do I request a regular dry cleaning and then a starch, or is there a special procedure involved that requires a specialist like Barker's in England?- fluteplayer07

Formal Wear Primer
Short attached collars may have the stigma of being a product of the 70's and 80's wing tip collar phase... When they were made embarrassingly short and of inferior quality than the detachable collared shirts... Not to mention the dreadfully unattractive soft pleats on the bib. Detachable...- fluteplayer07

Formal Wear Primer
I'd say a turndown collar since its a more casual double breasted jacket. If it were a single breasted one button peak lapel, then you could wear the more formal (detachable!) wing collar shirt. The reason is because in the early days of the tuxedo when it had recently diverged from the...- fluteplayer07

Formal Wear Primer
I could use some opinions... I'm trying to find a good pair of patent leather shoes for my black tie ensemble. I think I've narrowed it down to two pairs. The Allen Edmonds Mayfair, or the lace ups from Brooks Brothers. I purchased the BB formal pumps a while ago but the size wasn't right, so...- fluteplayer07
