I've looked at suitsupply, but they do a lot of peak lapels and I'm particular about that
Ron, how do you feel about DeoVeritas
for stuff like that I'd go with someone like propercloth
I have a luxire from years ago
those fabrics look awesomesauce
i can't tell the cut/form on luxire website because it's folded
luxire is fully to your measurements
theyre not 'made to measure' like some places where they just adjust a pattern you have
but that only works if you have a good shirt you like the fit of already to go off of
new Zealand's retail scene is pretty sparse
yeah it's not the greatest
esp if you want something that's less conservative and has a bit more character
make you a suit out of Chucky
none of the good Hong Kong tailors stop over either
although I usually advise against it
you might be best buying a suit off topic and getting it altered at locally tbh
Okay yes windowpane very yes
im also touchy/unsure from places i haven't bought before, because the last thing i want to do is get a suit completely recut, may as well start from scratch
plus yoox has easy returns
we don't talk about menswear on plurk enough.
yeah, but on the whole, it's very female dominated, i mean
so most of it relates to womens fashion, as you'd expect. and a lot of it on SL
i have some from barkers but a lot of the cheaper ones are lower quality merino, plus are fused breasted
and the nicer quality ones generally don't get included in sales as much
idk, its like jeans, id rather buy jeans that fit and aren't going to fall apart in a year or less, if that makes sense
you know your suit construction!
oh im a suit snob hahaha i just don't talk about clothes much on here LOL
why have you been holding out
idk, i jsut dont talk about work related stuff often
ok we're back to talking about cars.
yeah but it doesn't have to be work related
i have an embarassingly large wardrobe for a dude i think
I've never had a proper suit
whatevs tho, idgaf i like dressing nicely lol
the closest to a suit I've ever worn is like, rented wedding tux
boyo: one day when im rich, im going to get you fitted for one
a "perfect suit" changes your entire confidence level and outlook on the day
im not embarrassed by my wardrobe
better yet, find a nice suit and have me fitted to it
I know it's a bit weird to get used to
i dont think i adore the clothes themselves, i think i just like tetris'ing that shit
like putting together things that work
i usually have what i need
boyo: if you ever get the chance, do it
am also able to help with looking like a mad max extra
or 19th century chimney sweep
I have a weird body type to begin with
19th century chimney sweep is my aesthetic okay
the penguin belly just throws everything to shit.
clothes shopping for me is quickly followed by razor blade shopping.
on my way to this
gets you some bubblegum cigarettes
I'll need to take up smoking for the full aesthetic
fully canvassed in horsehair ftw
Allegory: ok, im actually quite intrigued by that, not even gonna lie
most of my daily business suits are half too, mainly because cost
they use a couple different materials for canvassing actually
liquidhell: i was not actually joking linking it to you! but you'd have to risk it with the no trying on.
Allegory: it's very loud, but i think, on a good day when im feeling confident and zero fucks given, i could probably pull it off lol
if it's good enough for Hardwick.
Lol that PacMan suit is amazing!
Idk what half this stuff means I just wanted to come on here and be like THAT WOULD BE A GREAT SUIT FOR LIQ
I click one link and now my ads are
Idk if I should be annoyed or be like ~thank you~
mechadollie: is that Asian man with the sharp rims an adult
an adult cat with special needs?
Lmao. Maybe. Idk his life. Idk what he's been through
well, you should adopt him
Is that what the kids are calling it these days
