    this jacket belongs to Takashi Tateno (e-workers) and is simply one of the best 30s belt-backs i've ever seen: shoulder darts:

    good call Fastuni. i would definitely add raw silk to the list of possible fabrics for this suit other than wool.

    My First Trouser Project

    i do, but i find it very confusingly described and illustrated. the whole thing could have been made much simpler to follow. i also don't follow the book's methods to the letter by any means, but use it as something to take the bits i like from. i don't bother with the top welt / jet when...

    interesting suit. looks like a 'linen effect' wool. that is, assuming it is wool and not heavy linen ? (or some mixture of wool / cotton / linen ).

    'Convertible' collar shirts" Trelegant by Walbusch

    ^ that's my understanding too; the type of stand-less collar seen on US gabardine leisure shirts. the shirt above appears to have no top button so maybe that's what's 'convertible' about it ?

    1920s suits

    whacky proportions. notice that if you fastened the jacket you wouldn't see any of the waistcoat. the three buttons couldn't really get much closer. Harold Lloyd's early 20s suits , although similar in proportion, have less extreme button stance:

    i'm digging the blunt tab collars. they're quite refreshing for those of us who have been spear-pointed to death.

    waist seam suits?

    the guy on the right has one: by 1919 they were on their way out.

    waist seam suits?

    cpdv, i've handled a couple of Victorian ones similar to those below, but don't own any. i'm guessing it's the late teens - early 20s ones you're interested in ? they go all the way back to the Regency period frock coat.

    1936 Bespoke Burberrys Equestrian Horse Riding Jacket

    agreed. i see nothing suspect about the label (or lining) at all. put it on ebay with some good clear photos and mention Burberrys and 1936 in the title, and you should get a very good price for it.

    College wardrobe

    me too, as i like a sweater to be an inch or two over the trouser waistband. makes me wonder why they made such long sweaters in the first place when trousers were higher waisted.
