Texasgirl, this is a wonderful resource! Over the years, many new Loungers have asked for a general guide to 1930s men's fashions. You've just provided it to them. I really hope that a bartender will make this thread a sticky.

A lot of great resource threads on the Lounge recently.

Thanks Texasgirl!

 

[Marc Chevalier]

This thread is especially useful for novice Loungers, and could save them a whole lot of time and trouble searching for information all over the place. The guide is short but accurate, and covers many different aspects of 1930s menswear.


For this reason, it richly deserves to be made into a sticky.

"The best illustration I have ever seen of "Oxford Bags" i always though "Bags" were only worn in the mid 1920's these seem to be from the mid 30's?, would anyone know of a paper pattern source for "Oxford bags?"

Add my vote to Marc's suggestion to make this a 'sticky'.

It already is a sticky, but sometimes stickies are...well... "unsticked" by the moderators. Filfoster, let's hope that this one will stay right where it is.

I would so wear Oxford bags if I could find any. I love the flamboyance.

"Quest for the perfect pitch

For anyone who is looking for either casual or more formal, I find custom fitted shirts/suits are best for comfort no matter the situation. I got a great deal on some guys who are doing a new company launch and are selling the 100 first suit/shirt packages at COST. Email them or look them up on Facebook under "Quest for the perfect pitch" or Fitseekers@gmail.com
