Hmm, actually my charcoal suit has white pinstripes, though thin ones and not super strong. Still, that could be the problem. I never really liked white pinstripes, and glad my new suit is solid navy.

Too many lines going in different directions. I wear patterned ties sometimes with my chalkstripe suit but they tend to be dense patterns that suggest texture more than pattern if that makes sense.

I am confused by business dress; thankfully I never have to wear it.

me too. i only own one suit and its burnt orange. and its kinda nylon/polyester'y. the kind of thing that makes that swoosh-swoosh-swoosh sound from where the legs rub together when you walk..

no ties either.

Seems legit.

This is quite interesting, following on from a report suggesting that not knowing the sartorial rules of the City ('no brown in town', etc) acts as a bar on social mobility.
