"Unstructured" is a thing though, along with natural shoulders.

The only hat worth getting is a Lock & Co http://www.lockhatters.co.uk/

Their Panamas are really something else.

Thanks. One of the jackets mentioned something like unstructured. But I wasn't sure if it was marketing guff to hide lower production costs.

As long as you don't wear your hat indoors, it's cool.

Then it becomes a *tw*hat.

I have 2 hats from Locks, they're both the fucking business.
Having an actual guardsman open the door for you is also a nice touch..

£895 for a hat. I must be doing it wrong.

Words cannot explain how much I love wearing this hat..

And this, for formal/mob occasions.

Went in to Lock a while ago to get a new flat cap. Didn't rate their own brand tbh, more to do with style though. Whilst trying it on I stood next to some wigger chap who tried on Derby hats with his new era cap laid on the table next to him. Quite a sight.

5 or 6 Carhartt x Adam Kimmel jackets in TK Maxx New Cross for £60-£70

Yeah I passed on one of those. Tag said RRP ~£420, lolwut?

Theres a TK Maxx in New Cross now?!

which jackets btw?

Yeah, next to the big Sainsburys by New Cross Gate station.

There were some of the one Sumo posted (in black) and also a lighter jacket (in black and in sand/khaki).

oh my goodness, might pop down, thanks for that. It used to be a matchstick factory when I was a boy...

How easy is it for a tailor to take suit trousers in well? (ie so they look like they were made that way)

Say from a 38" to a 33/34"?

Also if the edge of jacket (where the buttons are) is frayed, is it possible to have a small amount of material removed to tidy the edge up?

Cheers.

hm, might turn out a little...

wood green. But don't worry, I got the only one.

FYI it's still out there...

Just got £1100 worth of Carhartt x Adam Kimmel for £140. TK Maxx St Albans. (#provinces)

^^ yeah.

Having a read around I it sounds like 1-2" is all you can really do without the shape being effected.

Bought one of these but it's a too big which is annoying. Good quality.

Dunderdon Lightweight Parka, £45 delivered. New. XL

Not my pic but the same thing.

No Carhartt bonanza in TK Maxx Green Lanes, however they did have this rather nice Wolsey’s Exeter jacket:

But after a quick bit of googling I found wolsey selling it off for a tenner cheaper on their site.

'Tasteful' 70s disco themed party.

I'm thinking of trying to copy Moroder's look since I'm a bit of a fan.

Unfortunately I have no idea where to locate this stuff other than scouring op shops. Any clues on what the jacket is? The watch? The glasses? I can't find a Musicland Studios t-shirt either but that could be made.

Or could scrap that as too difficult and dress like a Bee Gee with bell bottoms and wide lapel brown shirts. Their hair length might be tricky to get to by December.

Might be easier to copy her look instead.

^^ ebay would be my first port of call.

Beyond retro if you don't mind paying.

eBay might be a little too late?

this is amazing for fancy dress, and cheap too
