1920s suits
yes, but the breeches of the late 1700s were a fashion garment. the breeches noted above are descendants of the type made specifically for riding, which are a different thing to the fashion garment. some people also say that a plus four is a type of breech, so terminology can get confusing...- herringbonekid

interesting... i wonder if that's because it's for 'stout' men ? it still appears that the rest of the buttons could easily be closed. here's another wide-spaced-button jacket with all buttons fastened:- herringbonekid

nice jacket. IMHO it needs to be worn with the right accessories of it's era, to get the best out of it. in this photo: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?75566-Suits-Pre-1920&p=1817052&viewfull=1#post1817052 ... the jackets are being worn in virtually every buttoning...- herringbonekid

Vintage Polo Shirts
an ex-girlfriend of mine had a men's polo shirt which i'm certain was 20s. it was in a slippery rayon jersey, very finely woven, not much texture, just a small rib. wish i'd managed to claim it. [huh]- herringbonekid
