Gent's mid-century day ensembles...

It's time to get one's dandy on, I say. Image courtesy of Museum at FIT. 

Two absolutely spiffing day ensembles for dandies of the mid-century. Good heavens, aren't they a delight? Waltz on down the avenue in these babies and you'll do quite alright, I can assure you. The suit to our left is a wool number with a fetching checkered vest for the Victorian wishing to add a little flair and personality. To the right, looking as thought it's been lifted directly from 1970's era Mod Ken is a brown cotton and linen suit for the late 1840's gent.
