I’m heading out for some errands. Since it’s still in the mid-80s, the fall fabrics and layering need to wait another month or so here. Simple and cool with a cotton oxford, stretch denim, and some double monks. Any recommendations to improve? Thank you in advance!

Today I went with the burgundy suit to match my coke GMT :) Hope everyone is having a victorious day at work.

Tonight I'm invited to the new FW2025 collection event of Suitsupply. I will probably make separate post of the event but here is the fit.

Mixing new (to me) and old today. New: Brooks Brothers button down shirt, Tom James trousers Old: Allen Edmonds Park Avenues and Jones New York suit jacket I bought in the late 90s. The weather here is gray today, so I'll be accompanied by my gray hat, also from the 90s.

Somehow I got on the Articles of style mail list. A few weeks back I did a post on a flair legged (bell bottom) suit that was another porkey pig fitting too short skirted too high operable button atrocity for $2,000 that they had done. (Each pic same model) I was happy to open up their e mail to see an appropriate length on the tweed: Operable button buttons at models waist- Skirt is at least as long as his crotch. They had the grey flannel pic in the email but cut off the bell bottoms this time. Note how the grey flannel is not only too short at the skirt and too high at the operable button. This fashion trend which a lot of guys have become complacent about has become so common I believe guys aren’t recognizing its biggest risk. Just like the baggy three button (not 3/2) cuts of the 90s aren’t worn anymore-once this “fashion”oddity flips back to a more normal proportion with suits fitting as they have for over 100 years it will equal a lot wardrobe $$$$$$$$$$$$. While I will concede that the grey flannel is a more fitted versus the traditional sack cut front chest panel- that doesn’t excuse its length. Whew.😅 Sanity remains. There is some hope
