While Morning cutaway suits are nice, most of the shown striped trousers are atrocious. Visibly thin material and way too long.

Ha! I just spotted myself in this crowd shot:

Right in the middle, bottom of the photo - I'm one of the three people in red tones - I was actually wear my Aero Bootlegger in Cordovan. This was obviously taken before the gun carriage arrived.

I always knew that you'd make it into the Mail one day, Edward.

There was an even better photograph of me specifically at the Flotilla back in June 2012... Let's just say I wear my "Hated by the Daily Mail" badge with monstrous pride.

Obviously those fellows wearing the "too long" trousers failed to stop by here to purchase and alter them....

However, it is to my understanding that not everyone attending this funeral wore black......

Edward were you throwing flowers or eggs?

Actually upon some extremely close examination of the pictures of Edward in that crowd, you will notice he was (with much dignity and splendor) giving that young gal in front of him an early "Christmas Goose"...lol! (you know we love ya Edward)!

Gotta say I do like the tux with striped pants.

"Don't worry about the length, sir! You'll find that they'll ride up with wear!..."

A tux is eveningwear. This is funerary morning-wear.

Despite being 135 years old, Ms Collins looked good in a fedora at the funeral.
