What sparked your fascination with the "Golden Era"?
I feel very much the same as you mentioned. Never felt really good in these times (with the possible benefit of computers and antibiotics). Other than that, times seem to be absolutely vulgar, in every sense. That's what drew me to the glamourous Thirties, Forties and Fifties (strangely, I never...- dobroruka

My Steve McQueen cardigan(s) - This time in heavy cashmere made by White of Hawick
The Steve McQueen (and yours as well) look great, really - specially regarding the buttons. As I spent a sabbatical in England last year I had the opportunity of buying some cardigans at the Edinburgh Woollen Mill ( online at http://www.ewm.co.uk/ ) and am very happy with them.
