    1920's light grey belted back SB suit with peak/fishmouth lapels.

    Those shoulder tucks on the back are a 30s detail, I believe, I can't remember seeing them in any 20s suits.

    FS: 50s Rogers Peet tweed sportcoat and 60s Harris tweed sportcoat

    I have two tweed jackets that no longer fit that I'm selling. Rogers Peet University Shop tweed jacket, gray blue in color. 3 roll 2 front, single vent, skeleton lining. 1949 ACWA union tag. Marked a size 39 but the back and side seams have been let out a little. Because it's skeleton...

    What are you wearing today??

    We went to a benefit ball on the 1st. I wore a 1940s db 3 piece with a 40s foulard tie. She wore an evening gown I made from a 1930s pattern (and finished that afternoon!)

    Forged hat hook for fedoras

    Thanks, gents :) I'm asking $35 +$4.50 shipping to the US (international determined by location). Fancier designs would be a little more, depending on what they are.

    Forged hat hook for fedoras

    When I'm not sewing, I run a blacksmithing shop, Iron Bay Forge. I just finished a hat hook made from a railroad spike that was inspired by a vintage hat rack that was in a friend's house. The hat part of the hook is tall and is far from the wall, so the hat is kept away from the wall (no need...

    FS: Houndstooth wool flannel trousers, W36, heavyweight

    Still for sale! The legs could be let down about 1" without losing the cuffs.

    Proper waistcoat length

    The rise of the trousers is not immaterial. Each piece of clothing must fit with the others in harmony for balance, fit, and style. If your trousers came up above the natural waist and the waistcoat to well below, the bulk would ruin the silhouette. The rise of the trousers and button stance...

    FS: Houndstooth wool flannel trousers, W36, heavyweight

    Chasseur, there's enough to let out to 37", but not quite enough for 38" I think.

    FS: Houndstooth wool flannel trousers, W36, heavyweight

    This is a pair of wool pants hand tailored from a 1940s sewing pattern. The fabric is original vintage wool flannel from the personal stock of a retired tailor, and is heavyweight, 22 oz. per yard! This weight makes the trousers drape the way that vintage fabric does but modern lightweight...

    FS: Striped detachable collar shirt with 3 matching collars

    This shirt no longer fits me and I would like to sell it. It dates to the late '40s or early '50s. It is a striped detachable collar shirt with three matching collars, the collars are reversible, so it is in effect six collars in three. The shirt has a bib front panel and is tunic fronted...

    FS: 7 1/2 silk plush top hat, outstanding condition, with case

    I'm selling this topper since it doesn't fit me. The person I bought it from said it was originally purchased in 1915 (the liner indicates it can't be earlier than that). It is a larger size, 7 1/2 (23.5"), crown height 5 5/8", and in excellent condition. There is NO WEAR to the silk plush...
