no grayed loss

is the black suit thing still followed? i was at a family funeral last year and i wore blue, having okayed this beforehand with my fairly conservative parents.

let me tell you i stole the show. (truth is i don't have a black suit.)

xpost let it all out darragh.

lol @ stealing the show at a funeral

was intended as a joke just in case that's not clear.

what colour socks does one wear to a funeral

if one wanted to steal the show, like, but not in any way so vulgar as wearing a blue suit u understand

im starting a fun sock company and im gonna call it sock and awe

the sock doctrine

do we have this black suit embargo back in, eh, the british isles? this is something i only found out about here recently. i don't really understand it. i like a black suit!

what black suits are against the law or something

[sidebar: wtf do irish ppl call the british isles? i mean, in english? feel like this should be elementary]

I've only ever seen ol jimmy joyce in a black suit tbqh

xpost the british isles is the geographic name for these cursed rocks we're on. think irish people live in denial of this.

say no to black suits

god bless u for the 'eh' RS, it is quite enough for a reasonable irish person that you pause for a second before saying 'british isles' imo

black suits are for wearing onstage during yr concert IME

seems like a few years ago black suits were real popular

i wish black suits were illegal in the us. every business school student rocks, when he has to present a spreadsheet or whatever the fuck they do, a black suit, white shirt, red tie and they look terrible.

sock market

doctor sock

meet the sockers

a 'tuxedo' is not a 'suit' if you wanna get real fussy about terminology

& i know you do

yeah i just liked the pic

that is why I have both a tuxedo AND a black suit

</swag>

received wisdom i picked up (from god knows where) is: black suit = mafia hitman. i'm not a master at color, but i'd imagine it's hard to coordinate well with black ... say, the classic menswear combo of black suit + lime green shirt with silver grey tie.

it's hard not to co-ordinate well with black

i never wear black clothes, because i prefer navy and have lots of navy stuff, since it doesn't go with black i don't buy many black items. dunno if everyone has this choice.

navy shirts can go with black trousers very nicely

i saw a wedding party in boston and all the guys were wearing black tuxedos at like 2pm. they looked ridiculous.

it's hard not to co-ordinate well with black

pretty easy if you don't have a black belt or shoes!

what type of disgusting savaged doesn't own black shoes and a black belt

none. none more black

i only own black shoes and a black belt because i worked in a restuarant

caek otm, obv should have been in morning suits before 5pm

navy collared shirts tracer and black trousers tracer? idgi. dark, non-pattered shirts are what you wear if you work in a mobile phone shop or are german afaict. french blue is fine, but none more darker than that.

black t-shirt or black henley shirt with blue jeans maybe. otherwise no black except shoes and belts. it's a vulgar colour.

caek why do you hate goths

black jeans, actually, caek

i don't own black trousers i don't think

i.e. navy collared shirt, black jeans. that's how i roll up on you.

here's a menswear question. i am going for a job interview today. i will be interviewed by MY CURRENT BOSS and HIS BOSS. in a little office on the same floor i work on now. several co-workers also have interviews for the same job. how do i dress to impress without seeming like a tit, given that my normal work steez is jeans and t-shirts?

sorry, not today, tomorrow.

but in your reply you can speak in the PRESENT TENSE to give everything the URGENCY and BREATHLESSNESS today's modern internet typing demands

tuxedo t-shirt, pretty obviously. weird that you have to ask.
