    ID the maker of my Paul Stuart shoes

    I purchased these about 2 years ago and now have decided to buy another pair. However the special order price has jumped to $850 and I originally paid about $625. Ridiculous, IMO. (I have to special order because of the narrow last AND the fact that I want it in brown). It is currently on...

    RL Black Label to merge with Purple Label

    I was told by an SA at the Madison Avenue location that Black Label is being merged into the Purple Label line. Thus, there will now only be Polo and Purple. He said that the suiting would retain the same silhouette and the price point would remain the same to keep the BL client base. He...

    Ordering from Trunk clothiers or other UK websites

    Experience...good or bad? The way I have figured it is that you subtract 20% (for VAT) from the sales price and convert to dollars. Then add about 20 pounds ( $31) for shipping. Am I missing anything?

    Opinions (pic's included) of the PS aficionado's

    So I'm looking to brighten up my navy and gray suits this summer and saw these two squares on Mr. Porter by Drake's. I've worn white for years, but I like what I see from you guys when using color in the pocket. I will almost wear a blue shirt and blue tie (think Milanese business dress) and...

    Vest over a blazer/suit as outerwear. Opinions?

    Yes, I'm a bit of a sucker for the Pitti look...or should I say the Cucinelli look with a light puffer vest worn as outerwear. I live in a warm climate and maybe wear an overcoat four times a year, so outerwear has always been a challenge. A light overcoat would be my choice but I simply...

    Unlined Overcoats. Why?

    I was shopping for an overcoat this weekend and noticed that there are several unlined offerings (Belvest, Zegna and BG private label) I found this odd given than an overcoat's function is to keep you warm. I also thought that the lack of a lining would cause the coat to "catch" on your jacket...

    Doeskin or hopsack for new mom blazer

    I know hopsack is very popular on SF and I was set on this fabric for my new blazer. However I saw a doeskin blazer already made up and it looked quite sharp. I already have a light cashmere and a gabardine that work we'll, but my goal is a jacket that is a touch more casual but still work...

    Unobtrusive Belt Buckles

    I am looking for a belt buckle that is as unobtrusive as possibly. Why? I don't care for belts but is seems all of the odd trousers I can find have loops. I think a belt cuts my look in half and makes me look shorter, so I certainly don't need the extra bling of silver or gold keeping my belt...

    A return to black shoes for 2013

    In my quest for simplicity I am reconsidering black shoes. Currently I have 6 pairs of brown in various shades, chocolate whole cuts being my favorite. While I think brown is warm and elegant, I appreciate the the "modern" and "minimal" aesthetic black offers. I also like the continuity...

    Americans: More British or Italian in style

    A friend and I were having a discussion about American style. Clearly our roots are British but it seems to me that we are moving in more of an Italian direction. I say this because the younger crowd seem to prefer comfortable, soft shouldered clothing, odd jackets, blazers and the like. conservative business dress...

    Caruso experts: Two on Yoox (links attached)

    For those of you who know about Caruso, would you help me with these models I found on Yoox. I know the quality from wearing RLBL and I am intrugued by the look the cuts pictured. They look quite slim and European to me which is what I like. However the jackets look very short. I don't know...

    RLBL light gray suit. Photo attached, your opinions.

    photo(1).JPG (116k. JPG file) I saw this suit at the Madison store last weekend. I think it is nice, but I am a bit unsure of the color...it is a very light (Pearl) gray that will certainly work in the summer months. I live in the south where I could probably wear it 9 months out of the...

    How does an "untipped" ties effect drape and wear?

    I started to order some untipped ties in grenadine silk from Drakes but decided to wait to get some input on how they wear. I have never owned an untipped tie ( I assume that this is unlined??) and would like to know how they wear compared to stantard designs. Also, I noticed that several of...
