how sharp is your suit?

[EastEnder]

None of this trendy jeans and jacket combo round here sonny boy.

If it's good enough for Jeremy Clarkson, it's good enough for Blagsta.

 

[Dubversion]

my wedding (fuck me, i can't believe i just typed that ) is just the excuse i'm looking for to finally buy a fucking expensive tailored suit


my current suit isn't too bad, mind, for a Next off-the-peg. single breasted, nice high collar, slight pinstripe

 

[LDR]

Dub - You could go shopping with Blagsta for a M&S smart black wool trousers and jacket.

Just a suggestion.

 

[Blagsta]

I've already got me trousers LD ain't you been reading?

and you've seen my shirts...

I know that but someone has to go and help Dub shop. You've seen the way he dresses and you're the best person for the job precisely because of your shirts.

M&S smart black wool trousers. Will they do?

Nope - a suit is a suit - they need to go together - it's a fashion faux-pas to mix and match, even if the colours match.

There's a very fine line between looking sharp and looking like a wino, you know!

There speaks the voice of experience.

Trust this man.

 

[Blagsta]

wino chic is in this year. didn't you know that?

Nope - a suit is a suit - they need to go together - it's a fashion faux-pas to mix and match, even if the colours match.

and it's practically impossible to find a pair of trousers which exactly matches the jacket, if they weren't made to go together.

I look so sharp in a suit you could cut yourself on me

 

[top_biller]

a ribbon in your hair perhaps??

or a photo in ugly mug would do

Not enough hair to tie a ribbon (aside from the obvious clash with the suit)

As the photo in ugly mug, even if I had the ability to attach images to posts (which I still don't, despite many attempts) I fear I'd look slightly out of place amongst the current crop of baby photos.

Nope, I'll have to remain a faceless suit for now.

 

[bluestreak]

i ahve one suit. black, long jacket, double-breasted, quite nice. not very sharp i guess, but not too shabby.

i also own a variety of blazers to wear with me jeans for that east london / 80s social worker look.

Ummm, no.

Ok, that still doesn't get me past the lack of technical nouse required to post a photo.

I'll see what I can do. I can guarantee I'll be without suit though.

You dont need to 'attach' it u need to just bung it up on somewhere like flickr, photobucket, or imageshack and then put the url of where it is inbetween the tags :cool:

Eazy Peazy :p

 

[sorearm]

Fucking stroll on.

Prepare to be underwhelmed.

[farmerbarleymow]

This thread reminds me - I really need to get a suit - got rid of an old one a few years ago (hated it), so could do with one now. No idea where to go though - my idea of hell is a shop full of different suits - where do I start!

Mens suits have to be dark I think - none of this pale rubbish

FS Just hurry up

 

[Dirty Martini]

Some nice threads on this thread.

I picked up a light brown single-breasted pinstriped from a charity shop in Herne Bay at xmas, perfect condition. Could have been bespoke it fits that well, nice flare to the trousers.

Sharp, in a 'clutching a pint of Double Diamond at a wedding in 1979' kind of way.

Nice. A slightly distressed background punter in a private members club in the Sweeney kind of look?

[lang rabbie]

Are we yet ready for the revival of the full Howard Kirk look ...

 

[Dirty Martini]

I think we are.

No one poses like that any more, with hand in suit pocket. Which is a shame.

 

[rubbershoes]

that's more the peter sutcliffe look

 

[radio_atomica]

Killer B in his sharpest suit

 

[Maggot]

I have a black Armani suit which I bought from a charity shop 5 years ago. Trashpony has pics of me wearing it. I thought I was the bees knees in it, but someone who knows about suits will probably correct me.

We want evidence.

Also Top Biller we now know what you look like but where is the pic of you in a suit?

 

[Maggot]

We want evidence.

Trashpony has the evidence, she also has my permission to put up pics of me in a suit, as long as she photoshops out my double chin.
