The Caan collar actually reminds me of the collars I've seen on 80's Brooksgate madras shirts. The one I own has a smaller collar but again still rolls and you wouldn't consider wearing  it with a tie.

I wonder if we would judge the shirt AP has one differently if it was a plaid and he wasn't wearing a tie. I mean, you would expect a better chance of it rolling without the tie at least.

Plus we are all overllooking the other sin. What is he playing at rolling his sleeves like that?

Probs Canada

A Canadian Eaton's (department store) catalog from 1966.

Mostly filled with garbage youth mod trends, acrylic/rayon shirts and hideous synthetic sta-prest, from what's been uploaded at least.

Wish I could dig up an old Schreter's catalogue from Montreal, c. '58-62, the treasures that would hold!

I wouldn't be surprised if it were. I watched La Samourai the other night and I think the policeman after Delons character wears a very sack like jacket.... though hard to tell if it is dartless.

But 30 francs for a jacket seems very cheap. I'm guessing French Canadian.

I really need a cord 3/2 sack suit.

I think it's probably as laid back and casual as a suit can get.

Parkaavenue has nothing to do with me whatsoever and the look documented isn't really my style, a friend runs that blog though and he likes the whole parkamod 80s revival thing ben sherman northern soul etc. Not for me in the least, but this page that he uploaded was great. The plum coloured flannel sack is beautiful and makes me envious!
