Re: When bespoke wishes and fabric dreams go wrong

I don't know.  Seems all he'd really need is for the waistcoat to meet the trousers quite a bit higher up, a shorter coat, and definitely less massive lapels.  That would probably elongate his legs (which presently look like they've been chopped off at the knee with what he's wearing) and improve the overall silhouette considerably, giving him a more elegant and less dwarf-like (short, robust, short legs) look.  All that would require is higher rise trousers and a higher cut on the waistxoat.

I tend to think it should be no trouble at all doing him at least some favours with his clothes.  The rest we can nitpick to death, but that's where he goes wrong most badly, and that's what makes him look most terrible in my opinion.

Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.

Re: When bespoke wishes and fabric dreams go wrong

This little fellow would benefit from more tapering in the pants.  Sometimes one just has to turn a blind eye to the rules (that would forbid such tinkering with formal wear) and go with what looks best.  He might also want to consider elevator shoes, seriously.

No wonder the membership there is so insecure; there are Napoleon complexing running around like nobody's business.

Re: When bespoke wishes and fabric dreams go wrong

Good finds, Bob. The pith helmet guy is wearing the guard's tie, which has to be the most boring tie ever designed, the Edmonds Park Avenue of the tie world. The old codger in the topper is genuinely an old codger, so I can't criticize him!
