The Vintage Tailoring Thread
Rabbit, the suit in that thread you linked to and the one below, have very novel features such as satin-bound edges, fancy buttons, spratt's head stitching at the rear waist, as well as the very high and close buttoning. it seems to be all these elements together that make them classic 'jazz'...- herringbonekid

Progress Suit Catalog - Fall/Winter 1920 w/ Illustrations and Swatches
the 'box back' is totally absent from the catalogues of the same year i own (Charles Williams 1920 and M.Ward 1920) so i wonder if this was pretty much it's final outing ? they also don't have any of the overly fancy pocket flap designs seen above. both hark back to the mid teens, so many of...- herringbonekid

The Green Suit
in the early 1920s catalogues 'olive green' was a very popular colour. it seems like every other suit was available in 'olive green'. (mind you, they seem to use 'olive' for any shade of green from brown-green to muted-lime-green to forest-green). so why did green fall from grace ? like the...- herringbonekid
