The men's dress style thread..

[Accy cyclist]

I bought the olive green Corduroy jacket and trousers in the Cordings sale the other day. I refer to it as a jacket and trousers as there wasn't a waistcoat in the same material to make it a three piece suit, which I normally buy from Cordings. It's still classed as a suit, though I need to find suitable waistcoats to match the combination. My first thoughts are the gold coloured and the burgundy velvet Cordings waistcoats I have, depending on the shoes and hat to match of course. 🤔

Not sure about that at all Accy

There is something about a green corduroy that just shouts "No".

You could go undercover at a geography teachers' convention.

Green corduroy - says a bit louche.

But are you Lòuche ,Accy. Not that's my impression at all, no way are you a lounge Lizard..... but maybe you are?

No, it's louche, risqué.... just an opinion

My latest Cordings suit feels quite fitted after trying it on. It's surprisingly close to the body, so the jacket and the straight hemmed, not turn ups/cuffed trousers are more formal than corduroy stuff I've bought before. I still haven't un-stitched the pockets as I doubt I'll be wearing it yet till spring at the earliest as it's only a medium 16 ounce per square yard weight. 🧐

I'm finally out of my winter jacket and in my nice grey double breasted coat, which I can wear open and swish about insouciantly as I walk.

Looks very raffish.

Having said that, some of the below get ups are quite adventurous. Mmm, maybe it's time to slightly break away from tweed and 'embrace' some medieval attire. 🤔
