Look carefully... it has at least four buttons and appears to have a collar that can be buttoned up. There were such sportcoats... but part of me wants this to be an altered suit jacket. :) Yes - I think the bulky Central/Eastern European style is quite appealing (as long as the waist is... -
girls in guy's garb
May 1, 1948 press photographers at demonstration in Leipzig The young lady has an interesting combination of what appear to be male clothes. I think the beret together with the hair-do make it altogether feminine in appearance. (The raincoat of the man is rather unusual... )...- Fastuni

What are you wearing today??
@Hamilcar A barrel type cuff would be called ¨French cuff¨, this one has an overlap with buttons and resembles what would be called a ¨Swedish cuff¨ (at least on uniforms).- Fastuni

Ian Fleming - The Man Who Would Be Bond
Kirk, the CIA was established 1947, but your point is of course absolutely correct. Seb, I agree - I never found the Bond films appealing. Very flat, predictable and campy. Watching the Fleming trailers I sense the same over the top exaggeration and cliches that spoil most ¨action films¨.- Fastuni

Wearing suits casually
I would recommend strongly against synthetic fibres, especially 100% synthetics. One can find (from brand new to any vintage) pure wool sportcoats and suits on ebay. If it is something made within the last four decades, it will cost often only very little money. Also if you have thriftshops in... -
