    I was born to late........make it a birth date that I would be spending my 20s and 30s during the 30s. I was listening to the music of the 30s as a young boy in the 50s and 60s. I belonged in the 30s. I think about that and ask myself, would I have survived WWII? My father did and so did I, so...

    Ivory Dinner Jackets and When to Wear Them

    I've been scouring the net looking for the vest and trousers but no luck. I do know there is a combo similar made by the same manufacture but under a different color. Close but no cigar.....but I feel lucky to get the jacket, the most important part.

    Where do you like your sleeve to end? Wrist? An inch below? Your first thumb knuckles?

    Fitting of a military uniform calls for the sleeve to end one (1) inch below the wrist. This is usually halfway between the thumb knuckle and the wrist break. I can only speak for the Army. This is where all my civvie-skivvie sleeves on all my civvie-skivvie jackets and suits/sport coats are today.

    Brown or earthly colors for day dress, evening dress, black...…….I'm sure you've heard that requirement for evening dress "black tie".
