Get Low
This movie deserves a bump. It is highly recommended for the loungers. I watched at the theatre last night and would love to watch it again. Next time I´ll pay closer attention to the finer details in costumes and set design. I´m no expert on the style of the thirties but the atmosphere created...- Trenter

Show us your suits
A small town in Sweden called Hjo. In a thrift shop nearby I also scored a vintage tie rack and the New York World´s Fair guide book mentioned in this thread: http://thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=1464 I guess sometimes you´ll find yourself in the right place at the right time ... :) -
Show us your suits

New Old Stock Suits I found these three two piece single breasted suits while on a road trip this summer. A store was closing down and the store owner cleared out the entire stock. A rack of vintage suits up front had only weird sizes but in the corner of my eye I spotted some similar... -
