I already have a morning coat and hickory-striped trousers, but I've been looking for an affordable waistcoat like that for some time. Great find, sir.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06704374095263668161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-46139998503574106582012-09-14T13:44:16.797-07:002012-09-14T13:44:16.797-07:00This is so, so, so close to my size, and I'm g...This is so, so, so close to my size, and I'm getting married in November, and yes it is a day wedding. How amazing would that be, to stroll in wearing it?<br /><br />Alas, I believe I'm a hair too large - usually closer to a 40 than a 38, and a couple inches too tall.<br /><br />I hope someone wonderful winds up with it.Bruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11679353172784074071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-89561775201945993122012-09-13T20:09:21.087-07:002012-09-13T20:09:21.087-07:00Until a few years ago, the ushers at my church wer...Until a few years ago, the ushers at my church were dressed in the full morning dress suit every Sunday morning from Labor Day through Memorial Day. <br /><br />We had a rather formal, lovely, gracious style of service.<br /><br />The demise of this dress was brought about mostly by the desire of some of the members to having females be ushers.<br /><br />The beanies worn by the females in the choir disappeared at about the same time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-3393906429073985722012-09-13T09:43:41.287-07:002012-09-13T09:43:41.287-07:00*slow whistle*

Though the jacket might be a tad snug. I wear somewhere between a 38 and a 40 depending on how slim the cut is... I am a 32 in trousers though... I have no forseeable reason to wear something like this, but best to be prepared, right? I'll be keeping a close eye on what happens with it.Christopher Redgatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08234961734623304619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-84028585351020977792012-09-12T18:40:47.994-07:002012-09-12T18:40:47.994-07:0038, 32x31?

I hope some lucky guy can give this extraordinary set of clothes a good home.<br /><br />Incidentally, the technical term for the pattern of the pants is "cashmere stripe." No, the pants are not made of cashmere, but for some reason, that particular style, with repeating stripes in different widths and shades, has that name.<br /><br />My vintage early 30s tuxedo pants also have a button fly, buttons for suspenders, and belt loops. Must have been a fad.Young Fogeynoreply@blogger.com
