I received my Forum Magazine yesterday from Hubert White in Minneapolis, and there is a one page segment about Manton's book "The Suit". It is a nice piece about how the book will help gentlemen look their best.

I thought this part of the article was interesting.

"Evening attire is perhaps the last bastion of rules-based dress followed by most men, and it is in a state of upheaval thanks to the increasingly popular "alternative black tie." Antongiavanni is hardly condemnatory of the present evolution--even if he would never be caught dead in a lavender four-in-hand with a notch-lapelled dinner jacket and plain-front trousers. "Men are cutting loose; its a little bit of peacockery coming out."

Well all I can say at this piont is, Thank goodness for the London Lounge. :)

Best Regards,
