A Sartorialist In Detail

If you want to judge the success of a Sartorialist outfit then take a look at his left shoulder. The shape of a jacket shoulder, pocket square, the shirt and tie combo and how it relates to the pattern and texture of the jacket, even the quality of the suit by looking at the roll of the lapel can all be judged by taking a peek at the southpaw (I feel I should mention a southpaw is a lefthanded baseball pitcher).
Below are two recent photos that show how beautifully nuanced, stylish and artistic menswear ,at its best, can be. Of course shoes can make or break a Sartorialist but if he can get the left shoulder right then you can almost bet the shoe are also on the mark.

You have the only site that should scare the fashion press. Your pix are great, your text is great--now get an interview with Simon Doonan.

Great use of textures in those outfits.

This is a beautiful shot - care to show the whole ensemble? Or did I miss it from an earlier post.

I third the motion that your site is wonderful - found you via Styleforum and have learned a lot about combining 'classic style' with creativity.

Shots like this are great object lessons for everyday dressing that looks anything but.

You have a very impressive wardrobe, Mr S! So which brand would YOU wear day to night if you had no other choice? ;) L.

Thanks L.
These photos are not of me. If I had to wear one label it would probably be Borrelli, better yet I would take a wardrobe from the Bergdorf windows from the last two years.
