Thanks much and yes that movie REALLY is great!lol


But to stay on topic, I thought I should just post this pic(Too bad my 30s bow tie isn't already here!):

(And yes, I know I look kinda strange in this pic, but it was around 1.00 am )

I'm George Nelson! Not, Baby face!!!

Looking good there Henry!

Thanks, I'm so happy that I got a bow tie in the exact same color as my Mallory 15!:cool2:


BTW-What do you think about this coat? It's new, but I think it has a very nice vintage look to it. 100% fine wool and the color is described as a grey-blue. Which pants would match with this one?

 

[Matt Jones]

Good looking coat... nice cut, decent sized lapels.

Get it pressed, though.

 

[Chad Sanborn]

I would say you should wear grey trousers with this jacket. Tan or white will also look good. If its more blue than grey, then any earthtone will match.

It looks good, and actually looks Italian. Very similar to Attolini's silhouette. Some modern Italian jackets are cut similar to the 1930s style, although the modern Italian trouser cut that goes with them unfortunately is narrow, low-rise and worn with a belt.

Yes, the coat looks good. Can you tell us about it? What make and where you got it. Definately nice lapels...

 

[The real Henry]

That jacket is made by Hugo Boss and if you look on ebay you'll find many similiar coats and suit. Some very nice examples:

Don't trust your eyes, this is a BROWN coat:

This one is my personal favourite:cool2: :

I finally got my camera out and took some photos. Here's the suit I wore to the FL meet in London, made for me last year by Rocacha Tailoring in London:

Salv,

I was going to buy a suit from Rob but I am still losing some weight. I figure by the January "London FL" meetup I'll have reached my goal weight. I plan on attending that and I'll be in the UK for almost two weeks. Does Rob have a shop? I'd like to go and take a look at some of his fabric.

Thanks,

Barry

Nice suit Salv! I remember it from the event, it made an impression!

He doesn't have a shop any more, but he works out of a room in a terraced house in Kensington in London. The address is on the contact page on the website. He's not always there so you have to make an appointment to see him, but if you're here for two weeks you should catch him. The next London meet looks like a big event - we'll have to find a larger venue.

Now I see where those high waisted pants came from in the other thread. Great suit!
