My suit...

Post by Marcus Petrius »

Finally I've gotten around to getting pics of me in my suit online.
When my parents bought it for me all I wanted was to have a brown one, but when I have to buy a new one I'm going for something more Raiders accurate.

pics:
with hat, no jacket :

with hat and jacket again (best picture out of four):

You can see I'm not wearing the hat straight in the first two pics (I'm not trying to emulate the ToD poster twisted hat-look though), but that's because I was in a hurry. I had to dive into the third pic because the auto-timer of my camera was getting ahead of me. That pic is just to show a friend the cap.
What do you think? Does the look suit me (no pun intended)?

Thats is a beautiful suit. I really wish I had one - and you carry it off well. It looks especially good with the fedora. All you need is a pocket watch.

That suit looks great. I really like the third pic. With that old school cap on, It looks like you came straight out of a time warp.

Well, you didn't think that white door and the black hole are just my closet, did you? :wink:

Thanks anyhow.

I'll trade it for your beard. :wink: I think it's a few sizes small for you. I'm a very narrow tall guy really.

It's rather funny really. I made these pics to show a friend a suit he could borrow because he had a gangster party (as we all know, anyone wearing a fedora is a gangster), not to show of my Jones suit.

If I were posing in a beautiful suit like that, I wouldn't look so worried. :wink:

I'll tell you how I got mine... shave twice a day when you're in yoru teens. Then in your 20's smeer used coffee grounds on your face. Don't use decaf.

Man that is a gorgeous suit.... the first thing I'm going to do when I get some serious money this summer is have a nice 3-piece tailored for me. It looks great on you too, wear it in good health!
