Help With Oddly Long & Thin Head?
Hello.
I've noticed that one of my fellow Internet posters has an oddly long & thin head yet wears suits which make his head look even more like a pylon standing lonley in the wilderness.
How can you play down a pencil head with good tailoring?
(No joke answers plese)

Should they avoid the DB?
The spread collar?
The peak lapel?
The horizontaly striped shirt?
I'd like to help my Internet chum look a little more like a fat head than he already does.
Having a thin head is no joke.

How about thin shoulders and wide girl hips?

Re: Help With Oddly Long & Thin Head?
My chum's problem is that he's an author & I worry that a thin head might make people say that his ideas are thin.
See the fix he's in?
He doesn't know that I'm doing this for him. I want to surprise him.
Please help?

My dear distinguished Sirs,
The boggle you invoke is indeed a vexing one, and I do myself suffer its perils to some not-slight degree. I find that using notch lapels flatters a thinner cranium, as does wearing a top hat and a monocle. A walking stick will also harmonise the proportions. One hopes that the plight of your friend will be thereby assauged.
I remain, dear Sir,
Your most obedient and humble servant,
Theodore Ebeneezer Alphonsus St Bonar, Esquire.

Has he considered a heavily-knit Balaclava?

A sombrero...?
Oh, on second thoughts no, it'll make him look like a mushroom...
