    Artisanal British clothing?

    also, Pike Brothers for the more denim / workwear side of the spectrum.

    Artisanal British clothing?

    the Curator fits that category: http://www.thecurator.co.uk/contact.html there's also labels such as Nigel Cabourn and Heritage Research who are 'vintage inspired' but a bit more towards 'fashion' than Old Town.

    PBS Masterpiece theater Mr Selfridge

    looks strangely similar to a recent BBC drama about the opening of a Victorian department store called 'The Paradise'.

    Boots - Canada 1920-1921

    a quick rummage through the vaults has turned up this: no stitching; i still can't quite imagine how they would look after some wear.

    The Classic Club Collar Shirts

    i'm planning a 20s collar shirt, but have decided that the rounded corner isn't for me, so will go for a square end (like top left, below, with a tab):

    Boots - Canada 1920-1921

    while i prefer a pointed toe, i find the rounded toe ones attractive too (for a more early 20s 'workwear' look they'd be perfect). actually, ANY early 20s boots that fit me will be welcome. i'm also intrigued by the three 'creases' that are stitched (?) behind the toe-cap area on a lot of 20s...

    Vintage short wool jackets

    scalloped sleeve head ? from the photos it looks like a normal round armhole that is just dented due to there being no shoulder inside it.

    I want a real sweater.

    i wish they offered it without the stripe too, for the full white / off-white English summer look.

    I want a real sweater.

    this is a scan of one of my own vintage photos showing similar jumpers. (this is a touch larger than actual size): these are more for chilly English summer days than serious winter wear.

    I want a real sweater.

    Old Town have recently added this jumper: it's inspired by Edwardian-20s knitwear, but with a slightly smaller collar.

    1920s suits

    TT, two of the suits in question are conservative in cut, so i think it's simply a term for 'novelty' stripe fabric or other unusual design fabric. the same way they used the word 'fancy' as in 'fancy stripe'.

    1920s suits

    those seem to be hangers-on from the bizarre pocket styles that happened around 1915, such as this sort of thing: ...on equally odd shaped suits. thanks for posting the images.

    20's /30's 'style' suit

    Fastuni you're right. i'd also go for a 80s-90s date.
