fashion mens
call my tailor: steve mcqueen
talk about handsome men and fine tailors. no doubt mcqueen visited savile row at the time for his personal pleasure (when there was no abercrombie & fitch anywhere in sight). douglas hayward of course supplied the suits for the thomas crown affair but that relationship didn’t just stop there. there is a great book on savile row, with a forward by tom ford (of course) which i will try and find to post. makes for good reading for anyone interested in dropping 10-20K on a suit. by dd

todays summer shower proved that a good umbrella should never be left at home, unless ofcourse you are thomas mann: “it suddenly began to rain and, as if on command, there was an umbrella over every head. that was a symbol of cowardice and vulgar effeminacy, the end product of civilization.” –magic mountain. by dd
