Hey! That's a great suit and it fits you very well! Did you have to alter it much after getting it?

 

[Dagwood]

No alterations done to the suit!!

No alterations done to the suit!!

Really?! Are you sure the original owner wasn't a relative?

 

[Jovan]

Horn buttons, nice! Weren't a lot of suit buttons made of bakelite? (Which I'm sure is still better than plastic.)

Here's another suit that is new to the lounge. This picture was too big to fit in the scanner, so part of it is cut off.

Jeez where do you guys get some of this stuff, lol everyone looks great!

I'm still having trouble finding stuff in my size. I'm a 36R and it's so hard to find stuff.

Recent photos of me and a friend before going out to a 60s night. The Five Aces played, a great band from Glasgow. I'm on the right in a teal blue 60s poplin two button with peaked lapels, short side vents, 8in bottoms.

Later on in Glasgow. Vintage late 50s navy gabardine 3-button, vintage tab collar, vintage tie.
