    Gable in a Leather Jacket I Think May Be The Perfect Thing.

    Very cool. You can envision a similar look in the 1980s.

    1920s suits

    Great photos, thanks for posting. The 1920s suits are at times more 'modern' looking than the 1930s-1940s. It is the slimmer trousers and more understated lapels. I love the last two in particular, the ankle boots, and Hemingway's rumpled casual suit. I think we all learn a thing or two from...

    Knit Ties

    The Ferrari guy is something of an overlooked style icon. Of course the focus is mainly on the cars. ;)

    Knit Ties

    Great way to look casual yet well put together at the same time.

    I like the thorough email. That's some good customer service.

    Compilation of French Cyclist/Luftwaffe Jacket Manufacturers

    Good idea to make a list. I have never heard of Morgan Memphis Belle, do you have a link to their website? Here are a couple more that I found: 'The history Bunker'...

    Have you flown in a vintage aeroplane?

    I don't know why, but I figured you'd be a Lancaster fan. :D

    Budget Civvie Leather Jacket

    I am in the same boat. I can't justify a premium price at the moment. Wested has this approximation of a French cyclist style: http://www.wested.com/new-x-men-first-class-havok-style-leather-jacket-498-p.asp And this halfbelt: http://www.wested.com/sky-fall-style-leather-jacket-247-p.asp They...

    GW B-6 Fresh Pics

    Nicest US flight jacket imho, along with the B2 and the G-1. Apart from the fact that it's a great jacket, this showcases what a difference proper presentation makes, i.e in natural light and worn by someone.

    Putting it all together

    contrasting patterns and colours. Good.

    Show us their suits

    Nothing like wearing breeks to accentuate one's hips! ;) You are right Fastuni! Just noticed the flare. Correction: Those trousers without the flare would be my favourite modern style.

    Show us their suits

    I like that jacket, two types. 3 roll 2, lapels and roped shoulders. Looks relatively long for the period too I think? That man has a perfectly rectangular face. I like this photo: How common were slim fitting trousers in the 1930s? Perhaps a 1920s/1930s transitional look? This is my ideal...

    Oxford Bags

    http://ayeshakapadia.wix.com/saleha#!look-4/c4ca Here are those vintage inspired styles by a graduate from my University. Certainly not high waisted, but baggy and pleated and a completely different approach to the familiar 'sexy/skinny' look. Hopefully a future trend setter! ;)

    Anyone else looking forward to sweater weather?

    I lived in Cyprus most my life so English summers are very mild by comparison... And very pleasant. So this weather is fine by me, autumn is ok, spring is wonderful, but winter definitely gives me seasonal affective disorder. I don't mind the cold, and it's a great feeling to be in a cozy...

    Anyone else looking forward to sweater weather?

    Agreed. I do not like waking up to a morning with no sunlight!

    Anyone else looking forward to sweater weather?

    I'd like to say I do, I like the clothes, but I get horribly depressed in winter. :(

    What do you think of this collar? 1930s shirt

    I am looking for some reference photos to send off for a custom shirt. I would have edited the previous post but it does not seem to be allowed in this part of the forum.

    What do you think of this collar? 1930s shirt

    Thanks for the comments. Apologies if I did not clarify this: The ridiculous/dandy comments were in reference to the severe curve of the collar which I am not sure about, rather than the fabric(which has that rumpled look I love). I want something a bit 'quirky' but not Cab Calloway, or for...

    What do you think of this collar? 1930s shirt

    Need to see one of these 'in the flesh', can't tell if it would look dandyish or just ridiculous. I want to order some spearpoint shirts to liven up my wardrobe a bit, but need to figure out my boundaries.
