i like your square frames =)

you may want to choose a shirt which is cut shorter as the shirt you're wearing now is meant to be tucked in, and you may also want to uncuff your jeans, because what is happening now is the outfit is making your legs look short, in turn making your whole body look shorter..

A few *cough* *cough*

That's some suppression there. What is the suit jacket's waist measurement?

i just wore the jacket again and it was fine, its probably the way i slanted to the right slightly which created that.. the natural waist is 16" across..

FusionEx, regarding that look I feel that brown/burgundy shoes with gray pants works better. Elegance at the top but it feels tad boring from the waist down.

That would equate to a 32" jacket waist circumference. From the measurement, it seems that your brother is really slim and the jacket is cut really close to his waist.

I agree with that but I have yet to get a pair of brown calf / burgundy cordovan. Still saving money for that perfect pair at P.Lal's. No brown shoes at other retail stores has caught my attention yet.. which is why I'm still making do with my black lace-ups. Speaking of which, black shoes do rock too, if you look at yfyf's pictures in SF. I'm a big fan of his.

SF fact : I share the same birthday with yfyf! I do love his outfits especially those with a raincoat. Meanwhile do take your time hunting on brown shoes. hehe.

I feel the urge to go sockless tomorow. The pants will be a pair of cuffed navy dress pants with black derbies. Should I?

Ah..brown shoes new la bro. I don't feel like pouring in sweat inside of the lining Too bad all my socks are conservatives. Should stock up some funky designs one of these days.

Hey guys, any of you have any idea if Corduroy is suitable for a climate like ours? I've been getting conflicting information.

Thank you

Flashing ankles without getting the new shoes soaked in sweat > How about no-show socks?

If you are planning to wear it under the blazing hot sun, the answer would be no as corduroys are thick and heavy. I have a corduroy blazer myself and I only wear it in air-conditioned places, like a walk in the mall but even so, it still feels a little warm.

yeah its cut pretty close to the body, much more than my Lord's suit..

oh btw i already told my bro and he decided to further slim down the pants, will meet the tailor this sat.. actually i do kinda see what kinda cutting granoff is going for, their going for one of those like "ballroom function" cutting, if you get me.. like one of those "malaysian awards party" kind of suit..

I smell 'Hollywood Red Carpet" - the conundrum for sartorial woes. Let's hope Granoff keeps to most tailoring traditions and not go to wild with new ideas.
