Charles Williams Stores, 1920-21:
i can't actually find an illustration of U.S. trousers...
yes, lots of vinspiration (sorry) among the fashionistas at the moment; bow ties, two tone shoes, hats, pleated patch pockets.

the long ties thing is a bit of an Italian craze.
Ouigi Theodore of Brooklyn Circus. that rust colour is vibrant !
i think there's a lot of well dressed young guys about at Pitti Uomo even if they don't dress 'vintage'.

if you're interested in buying a pair now, send me a PM.
