Suits.... Do you remember the 70s and 80s when suits came in all sorts of tasteful patterned cloths and were loose single or double breasted, covered the bum in length. Now? Any cloth or colour so long as its thin and black, single breasted but doesn't actually button up, waist length (if that), with sleeves that stop well short of the wrist. Matched with plain white shirts with cut away collars that fail to cover the sides of the tie's knot.
Down south this is the dress of the out of London estate agent - no one in London wears suits any more.
Yes, l used to be a well suited and booted city man and loved my suits, especially when l arrived home and could take them off! But why is it that current day garb is so cheap and shrunken looking. Sorry, this post was prompted by a TV advert with an estate agent
