The London Lounge

An obituary is the obvious place to put a flattering photo of the recently departed. A couple of photos in The Times have shown their subjects to be folk of considerable sartorial elegance as well as political or social standing. (Forgive my concentrating on a couple of personal heroes of mine..)

Sir Michael Edwardes - Industrial titan (at 5'3")





Jean Grand Duke of Luxembourg





If you search for images of him, you will struggle to find any in which he is not immaculately turned out - for example :

All very elegant. I especially like everything about the last photo.

The late Basil Feldman - respected British politician (so in a minority then..) and businessman. Also big brother to actress Fenella Fielding.

That herringbone suit just looks so comfortable.

WOW it really does look comfortable
