I can definitely see the rich blue in that photo. I've seen the style in a 1936 menswear catalogue I have from National Bellas Hess. Those pictures are black and white; the vivid colour version is a hundred times better!
Last night (or more like early this morning) was at the midnight screening at Hoyts Broadway of The Rise of Skywalker. No spoilers, will only say that it answers all the questions raised by the previous two films in the trilogy and wraps the saga up very nicely. Even the mega-critics known as...
