In a previous thread about the ol' college wardrobe Matt Deckard pointed out a list of items needed to make the perfect college wardrobe. I was out shopping today looking for many of these things and I found myself quite frustrated with the lack of good stuff out there.
So on my way home I thought of a little challenge for all of you. I challenge you to find pictures, links, brand names of as many of these items that would work as a modern substitute.
For example...let’s take "2 sweater vests 1 solid 1 patterned" now, one might put the following,
Old Navy
http://www.oldnavy.com/browse/category.do?cid=5289
Now the point is that it might be cool to see all the different suggestions that people come up with...plus it'll help me change my style to something a lot better than my old style of my pants hanging off my **** as all my current clothes are.
And finally, if anyone has vintage examples to see, that would be cool as well.
Here is the list.
1 wool tweed cap
2 fedoras 1 grey 1 brown
1 wool scarf
1 overcoat
1 raincoat
2 patterned sport coats 1 Brown 1 blue
1 navy blazer
1 grey suit
2 sweater vests 1 solid 1 patterned
10 dress shirts 4 white 6 patterned and colored
15 ties some wool some silk must have 1 school tie.
4 pair wool dress trousers 1 in grey flannel
4 pair casual trousers... khakis... linen
2 belts leather 1 black 1 brown
3 pair dress shoes 1 brown and 1 black 1 with rubber soles for comfort
2 pair pajamas
1 pair slippers
1 terry cloth robe
1 umbrella
6 white handkerchiefs
