On the Street.......Soho, London

You can tell there is something purposefully a little off about the suit - how British

Look at the guy I posted a few days ago with the DB suit and wearing a hat - his sleeves were also a bit short with no cuff( maybe short sleeve?).

I'm asking any UK readers if this look has a name or what the concept behind it is.

The Real Thom Browne Effect

The real effect of Thom Browne's work is that when I see a guy like this on the street I don't really notice the length of his jacket.
When I look at the photo for a minute I notice it but now a short jacket (even this short) looks kinda normal to me. I think it helps that all of his items are in black and blend into each other.

Agnelli's Watch in Dec. Town & Country

There is a great photo of Italian Sartorialist icon Gianni Agnelli in the December Town & Country.

As all Sartorialists know, Gianni was well known for his for his quirky but very refined taste.
His watch-outside-the-shirt-cuff is well documented but what struck me about this photo was the watch itself. It's not a Rolex or some other big name watch but a digital watch! I would love to think it is a Casio.

The photo is from 1980 so maybe a digital watch had a little more allure then but I love and Gianni is remembered for not being afraid to mix high-end/low-end or craft/tech.

So ,with this as evidence, don't you think Gianni ,if he were 50 years old today, would be using a cellphone as his watch? I just hope he wouldn't be wearing it on his belt!
