Dressing for Dinner.

[Drago]

His partner, who had very large breasts, wore no bra and a string vest.

It wasn't a good look...

...for a man.

 

[Drago]

I decided to dress up for my meal, dinner jacket, bow tie, the whole works. If I'm honest, I felt a wee bit out of place in KFC.

You are Colonel Sanders AICMFP!

Ties, the absolute most useless bit of clothing known to man, who decided it was a good idea to pull something tight and uncomfortable around your neck, it reminds me of some of the religious rules on clothing, ie: you will wear it because that's the rules.

Yeah but look at my beautiful new Liberty fabric Peach Pincher tie. It's gorgeous.




The real answer of course is 17th century Croatian mercenaries, which is much cooler than 21st century middle managers.

Tory MP's in a whiplash dungeon, I believe.

Ties are OK if your shirt collar is the right size. For decades I (grudgingly) acquired a tiny collection of smart shirts but never acknowledged that my neck size was creeping up. The net result was that I suffered unimaginable torture on the extremely rare occasions when a tie was required.

Size matters.

Morgan is probably the most arrogant person that's ever been on TV.

Not compulsory to watch him!

A long time ago, we were eating supper at a harbourside restaurant in Tenerife. The man at the table next door was wearing a quite grubby wife-beater vest. His partner, who had very large breasts, wore no bra and a string vest.

It wasn't a good look.

Marginally better than not wearing a string vest.

Thinking about that....I have agree with you. Was 'forced' to wear shirt and tie for 50+ plus years until I retired.
Strangely, although I have a rack full of ties, I had to borrow a black one (funeral) as I don't own one.

I went out to a restaurant on Sunday evening. Not a posh one at all, but there was a bloke there - mid 40s in a T shirt (either a motorcycle or some band motif on it) with his baseball cap on back to front. Looked a right tosser.

 

[Tail End Charlie]

Forgot to add, his partner had obviously made an effort, without going over board. At one point I had been looking at the baseball cap man and I saw she was looking at me and I rolled my eyes, to which she did the same and smiled knowing exactly what I was thinking.

I refused to wear one as soon as I left school. I'm not the right shape for them and even now I look like a school kid.

I must admit, when I go home I do dress for dinner; when Ive had a shower I like to dress smartly for the evening. This is possibly a reaction to clumping about in work clothes and a lumpy fleece all day.

I was rather sad to see the passing of suit and tie as standard work attire. I soldiered on for a while but eventually went with the flow.

I still always wear white shirts for work, even when working from home. Sometimes (to @Drago 's horror) with a suit but without a tie.
