There's one in the regular Fashion Forum and there's one in the Temporary SF Forum. Should Trads have one of their own?

I'm not sure what it means. Are we supposed to post the details of what we're presently wearing? Cheers, Harris
Yes, it's kind of silly but you can get an idea of clothing combinations. I can't say as I would be a great participant as I frequently wear the same thing day in and day out with slight variation. E.G.

Bills M1 cuffed in British khaki
BB tattersal blues on white
generic brown braided belt
C&B brown wingtips
timex on navy/red/navy band

PS forgot, Barbour Beaufort (no liner 50F)

I can see I'm going to be the boring one day after day.
Boring does not = Trad. I think this is my favorite thread! Thank you all for sharing. Keep posting.

Myself: Charcoal 3bt JAB sig. suit (dont care for the fit, but it'll have to do), Blue RLP OCBD, Talbott argyle/sutherland reg stripe tie, AE Macneil wingtips in burg shell cordo. Gotta get a sack suit...
