Buyer's Remorse or "What do we do with our failures?"
Buyer's remorse can't be worse than seller's remorse... money you can always come by one way or the other... but something rare you sold won't come back.- Fastuni

Show Us Vintage GERMAN Suits
Low button stance (below pockets) was not unusual on European late 20's DBs. BTW this suit had one of the highest trousers rises I have encountered. Well above the navel. Here a ca. 1928-30 photo from Iran showing low set buttons and pockets. -

Show Us Vintage GERMAN Suits
I found it yesterday at a goodwill. It is a size 41... I will take in maybe one or two inches to make it fit my waist. The body, sleeves and legs are fortunately long enough for me, so it certainly will be a keeper. A very versatile suit in such excellent condition (probably worn only on one... -

Sweet! The unusual semi-round V-neck looks good. What does the patch signify? Was it a club?- Fastuni

A very similar dark-blue worsted DB, but from the second half of the 1940's. Interesting comparison piece to the late 20's specimen. -
Where can I find a stroller/black lounge/stresemann jacket?
I used to have three or four such jackets in your size from the 1930's, but I sold them long time ago. Sorry, this is no great help for you. Check ebay.co.uk. They often have black stroller jackets your size. -

It is a black "afternoon & evening suit" along contemporary Central European fashion. Floey posted once this 1931 illustration of an evening suit, which described the "high closing" waistcoat. An early to mid-30's German evening suit I posted before, has also a very high closing waistcoat... -

Love those wide trousers and nice velour hat. Interesting long, rather narrow lapels on these suits (Iran 1930). Quite a contrast with the very high-closing waistcoat! Source: Center for Iranian Jewish Oral History... -

Photographs from Iran 20's-40's.
After the phantastic thread on the Romanian photo collection from the 1920-40's I will provide some photographs showcasing period dress and styling in Iran. A brief historical background: Iran from 1921-41 under the rule of Reza Shah Pahlavi (father of the last Shah) was modernized along...- Fastuni

girls in guy's garb
Photographs with the husbands/fiancés/boyfriends/brothers suit or uniform was not an unusual subject of "staged" photography during the first half of the 20th century. Sure a costume tailored for a woman will look more womanly and flattering to her figure. But a slight comedic/cute effect was...- Fastuni

HULK HOGAN's New Restaurant Dress Code.
Ah thanks for the clarification. My point was that unlike most other "ethnic/enemy cliche" wrestlers, these two were really from the respective background. No doubt about that... he catered to the expectations/ignorance of the average audience which didn't know the difference between...- Fastuni

HULK HOGAN's New Restaurant Dress Code.
The actors of "Yamamoto" and "Iron Sheik" were ethnically Japanese and Iranian and born in the respective countries. "Iron Sheik" Vaziri was cool before he started with this silly "Arab Sheik"-shtick... as an Iranian! :eusa_doh:- Fastuni

Drycleaning Vintage Suits?
Every single of my 1920-40's suits, tuxedos and tailcoats has been at the drycleaners and I never had a problem. Grosgrain or satin lapels - nothing bad happened. I have two cleaners: a "regular" cheaper store where I get price off for quantity and a somewhat more expensive "family" store... -
