post a commentGreat photo, Scott! I like the colour of this young gentleman's double-cuffed shirt and tie. Englishmen are usually very creative with their shirts and ties; not so with their suits, which retain sober patterns and colours.
But as far as "English gentlemen" go, this chap is a fairly mundane specimen who exhibits a classic City style. I'm sure you'll find more typically English gents out there. I'm referring to the Englishmen decked out in tweed, tattersall, knit tie, v-neck jumper, quilted jacket, Barbour jacket, cord trousers, brown brogues, etc.
Yes, he does typify a certain Brit look. Let's not quibble with the details--tie length and knot, etc.--or have I just?
tie is too long. tie knot too big. derbies with a city suit. not exactly my idea of a gentleman.
A little too much cuff showing.
Everything is just right except for the tie length.
geeeeeeeez.
the chap looks all french. suit, TIE, GGGLASSSES - and the whole combi and appearance: FRENCH

and the shoes, and the RAINCOAT over his arm.....

great pic Sart
always like how the Brits have the smallish spread collars and the massive ties
Where in London did you go? You see people dressed like this just about everywhere in places like Notting Hill, Hampstead, the West End, the City .....
Marvellous, the shirt and tie make it, and the fact that he is showing that much cuff without looking silly. I envy that.
Energie
He looks fine, but hang around in the City and anywhere lawyers hang out (Holborn) and you'll see other, possibly more classic, examples.

Sart you should see my father! We live in London and he would be great for your blog, he borders on eccentric but always gets his basics right. Seriously, as a graphic designer himself, he has such a brilliant understanding of aesthetics.
PLUS he is quite the little man aswell, at about 5 4".
Come back to London soon and I'll make sure he is somehwere you'll be and looking sartorialist worthy.
Looks more italian influenced than Brit to me.
OH LET'S DO!!
Knot: perfection
collar spread: inspired
pant length: precise
overall look: sartorial bullseye
sart, have you given any thought to disabling the comment function?
That is a humongous fucking tie!
Is this the purple and pink guy from a few posts ago? (or maybe all bald men with glasses look the same to me - that is worrying)If it's him, then I love it - a complete change of style, looking great both times.
goog look except the tie length and hid raincoat
You would think this is what you would see but:
Most Brits don't cuff trousers on "City" suits.
The shirt/tie combination would be louder. Much louder.
The shoes...Are those Westons?
You want City of London Gents? Go to the Lamb Pub in Leadenhall Market just off Lime St. Grab a pint and wait for Lloyd's of London to let out around 4:30PM. You'll be in target rich environment.
his shirt looks enormously too long. it drives me nuts when mine ride out half that far.
I love the english gentleman! Does he still excist?
What type of gentleman is that? A staple straight out of a Guy Ritchie movie?
Pulls off all the blue nicely, however.
hmmm. reminds me of my father. the way he is standing, with the phone, the business look.
though im sure sure my dad would have something to say about that tie!
