Cutaway collars, fat tie knots with shiny bright "wedding" ties, "slim fit" "Italian" suits and pointy shoes. How to get "noticed".

"brown scuffed winkle pickers" love you Heppy

Yes the H&H or H&K standard one is the best - the US collars often look priest-like

White shirts are nice when of very good quality and in English cut/style. The typical US "white shirt" wearer usually pairs it with too-light suits.

But isn't that to the American taste? Lighter and more brighter.

I flirt with white shirts, but never can run with them as a theme or signature look. It's a one off, every now and again. Not even once a week.

I wouldn't class as exotic, but you can mistaken for the head waiter in a restaurant.

White shirts- Maybe because I'm a Doc, but they are standard work attire for me.
Striped shirts- Second choice, but I find myself gravitating towards the more muted colors. Prefer candy stripes.
Multiple colored stripes- beyond my limited capacity to understand.
Pattern shirts- buy them but whenever I try them on in the morning the whole suit/tie thing becomes more of a fuss, so rarely worn in a suit or tie.

I see a lot of young guys at the club with cutaway collars, makes me feel a little bit too old for them.

Hm, Ginghams. Always remind me of wannabe youthful IT/Media people. Bengals are more powerful. When getting smashed az a liquid lunch at Wiltons last week, all the smart people who went there seemed to wear Bengals from across the road.
