I've been stalking this deer for quite some time and finally I got him.
Savile Row
12. Buy your wardrobe like a record collection. If you run out and buy a whole collection straight away, you’ll end up next year, with a lot of unstylish clothes. Aim to buy stuff that has a classic feel to it, and - fucking shit the bed -, you might just start looking a bit more classic.
9. Up at the back, down at the front. If there is excess baggage around your ass it will do one of two things: it will make you look like you’ve shit yourself; or women will not see your ass, and will assume you’ve shit yourself. The added advantage of this rule is that it also shows off your junk. Trust me on this one, they are looking.

To be fair I've know this guy for quite sometime and he was one of the reasons I started this blog. Dressing like a fucking man isn't about trying to look like a extra from a Frankie goes to Hollywood video, overt and flamboyant, it’s about having a tool-kit of knowledge to let you go to the pub and, at a minimum, not get ridiculed by your mates for looking like a kiddy fiddler (ironically this was taken behind Savile row...too soon?), but at a push, get a genuine compliment from an admirer. Our kid here gets it right, repeatedly.
This look is all about the jacket. It’s from a classic British institution and is a investment piece (basically it was fucking expensive), but it will last for years (hence it’s an investment). He’s made it the centre piece of his outfit and nothing else is fighting for your attention. The simple detailing of the collar, which frames the face brilliantly, the cuff detail and the rugged cloth make it a great item. The warm colour compliments his pale skin and medium contrast between his face and hair is reflected in the contrast between blue top and jacket.
I’ll leave this post with the wise words of Coco Channel:
“Dress shabbily, they notice the dress. Dress impeccably, they notice the woman."
A sinister photo-shoot if ever I've seen one.
ReplyDeleteI like the jacket.
Is he still there?
No he's not still there, they released him with out charge. Yes, the jacket is great. Next time i'm stalking him, i'll probably bash him over the head an make off with his jacket.
