    The short guy passed away. I believe it was a drug OD.

    Rest in peace my man.

    Well, lucky for me I'm not the attractive guy wearing a suit. I'm merely wearing a suit.

    I never said I was ugly. I'm just not eye-catchingly attractive, or just attractive. But I'm definitely not quasimodo
     
  7. Sorry to hear about your friend. I have multiple suits, vests, trousers. I like classic clothes and dress like that all the time. Sweaters, wingtips and a nice watch. It's a shame most people don't seem to care what they look like anymore. My hour our society has fallen. To see people shopping in their pajamas or worse. I would love to have lived in the 1950s. When men wore suits and hats and ladies heels and dresses.

    Mine's a Burberry brown herringbone tweed jacket with a subtle rust windowpane, an Orvis grey shirt with a rust and blue windowpane, and a predominantly grey and blue tweed tie which picks up the brown & rust of the jacket and gray, rust, & blue of the shirt. Pleated brown wool slacks with cuffs, nice braces, and high-end brown leather wingtips...and a Harris Tweed flat cap and an Irish Blackthorn stick.
    All from thrift stores.

    Or when people got dressed up for a flight, church, or we engineers all wore ties to work. My home office wear today is either warmups / Tee / hoodie, or warm weather, athletic shorts and Tee....socks and shoes always optional. Whenever I put on a sport coat, much less a tie for a customer event, I always get crap like "where, you going, a wedding or funeral????" - that too - people show up to things like that like they just fell out of bed...

  10. We must be from the same era. I am 55 and have always been in the insurance industry. We used to dress up in suits and ties with the ladies in dresses/suits and hosiery/heels. In the late 90s it began as "business casual" Fridays. Then it morphed into "business casual" then "jean Fridays" then downhill from there. Covid accelerated the slide into lazy dumpiness in the West. Really sad.

    I hit the NYC discos in the early 70s wearing a gold Angels Flight suit, like this one. No way I could fit in it now.
