He told me he was an engineer and that the bldg we were standing outside of , 1411 Broadway was an opera house ! I’ll have to research this one.. He was so rad though, with his pocket protector, dotted tie with checked shirt and a tan seersucker coat.. that pins does me in though! Every time!

Seersucker Offering From Ascot Chang

I just loved these photos. Been waiting to post them! Hope they scream summer like they do for me!
The interior of a Jacket. That band, so beautiful.. unlined..I feel the breeze blowing through! P1170178
These are unfinished as they are made to measure. I think Seersucker suits typically have just buttons without a marking for a buttonhole. You can opt for a fake button hole, functioning button hole or just a button. I love my classic blue jumpy I purchased from Mark Mcnairy about 5 years ago, trousers have no belt loops and have sidebuttons to adjust for the hot overstuffed summer days. I may have to go into Ascot Chang for my next suit as I cant stop thinking about a DB! Double vents or No vents is the question..P1170179

Cornell Tie & Harvard Braces

He was coming from an old classmates funeral, I was really excited because I have the same hat, same color and pinched just the same (Worth & Worth) only he wears it much better, his 3 pc suit and those frames! but his knot and attitude took the cake.
He said “we could stay here til the tulips come up”
Without any further delay, I take this time to formally introduce Advanced Style; a blog I have been contributing to that features elders who are killing it for 50 years+ on these here streets and Avenues.

On my way out of 4 Times Square (Conde Nast and Skaggen Law firm), this fella was waiting for a fellow lawyer in the lobby and I had to get his flick. After taking a dozen or so the security kindly yelled from their counter NO PICTURE TAKING. I asked Joe his name and he said “Joe Rosenblatt- like the cantor !”
