I'm sure in a context of his day his points would have seemed quite valid
but I def agree with his last paragraph of needing a variety of colors, some trousers cuffed and some not, imaginative shirts-ties-links. and mos def every man should own a green suit (or at least a sport jacket)
thanks for the article, it's little finds like that which help link all the bits and bobs into an intricate tapestry
