What are you wearing today??

[DStuttgen]

Today I'm wearing

a Michael Stearns suit I picked up at a St Vincent de Paul thrift store for $10,
a white dress shirt with silver and abalone studs and cuff links, My Fathers bow tie (I took a crash course on how to tie a bow tie from and internet video) first time I have ever tied a bow tie, My Bailey Homburg and walking stick from Hatcetera in Green Bay. My wife and I are off to Red Lobster to celebrate our 30th (Pearl) wedding anniversary.

Ciao, Dan

Not today but a few weeks ago. Failing to learn how to lindy hop at a 1940s themed evening... 1950s British suit, 1940s deco tie, bespoke shirt, and old Johnson and Murphy two tone leather and linen bluchers.

This is my first post here. Be gentle, guys!

(Ignore the fact that I'm wearing almost the same thing in my avatar... )

Welcome to the Lounge. You look great.

Failing to learn how to lindy hop is a very easy thing to do! I know that!

Great look - as always! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

^Thank you, sir.

To address the earlier comments, what you see through the trousers are the front pockets, not my undies.

I had a little mini photoshoot today to get some pics to send to a modeling agency in Milan. (fingers crossed on that one)
So, this is what I was wearing:

50s St. Regis special
Gray wool blend trousers (Used, but not vintage)
Custom vest/waistcoat (suspenders/braces underneath)
Cream linen jacket.
Scarf of unknown material and age.
Cheap poly pocket handkerchief.

Here's a headshot for the scarf pattern:

Edit: I just realized that this is the exact same thing I was wearing last post. Oops.

Well Alan, this photo answered the question; Boxers or Briefs?

It actually answers the question, "Are the pockets deep?"

To address the earlier comments, what you see through the trousers are the front pockets, not my undies.

I understand. Pockets. Got it. Sorry, I didn't mean it as an insult.

Same thing I was thinking. That and what an odd comment.

FYI, beware of lightweight summer trousers in white/cream as they have a tendency to be somewhat transparent, thereby showing traces of undergarments. I'm a boxer man so when I wear such trousers people will invariably point out than they can see my undies. I always respond with a laugh and a wink. I realize that a switch to briefs would end such comments but I'd rather be comfortable.

Again, my apologies to Alan if he took offense.

- Engineer Cap
- RRL Chinstrap Work Shirt
- US Army Blue denim pants
- russian undershirt
- WWI Marching Shoes
- british small pack

 

[AlanC]

No offense taken. My retort to the young fellow who pointed out that they were somewhat see through was, "Next time I'll have to remember to wear underwear, then."

TONIGHT: (Intermediate) T-A-NGO! A good workout! Teacher emailed me mid afternoon saying she needed a lady to fill in for the Int. Tango class. Learned some great new steps! Red knit dress I've had for several years-store long gone, label long removed. Nude Go Go Ballroom shoes, Sorelli bracelet, Borghese Gallery earrings, hosiery worn for class but not in this pic. Picture taken after class when I got home. Ya can't tell from this but I'm soaked in sweat here, as the building for the dance class had no air circulation, and it was a very warm evening.

Expect a 'knock' from RALPH...

You'd make a great model for RRL there!! or London's HACKETT. Well done :eusa_clap

Almost a nautical look - the stripes, I think? Puts me in mind of some of the wearable end of Gaultier's designs. I do like that undershirt... never seen one before, though I have the long-sleeve equivalent. Less practical than a plain white one for many purposes, but it looks great under a solid-coloured casual shirt, and I can imagine it pairing well with a blue-hued Hawaiian shirt...
