Perfect Pink ~ by Kipp


It baffles me how the vast majority of men care so little about their appearance and do not understand the powerful impact of a well cut suit or perfect ensemble; not to mention its effect over women :) This gentleman does not have that problem and is amazingly well dressed. I absolutely adore this light pink ensemble that he has paired with a navy and pink repp stripe tie tucked in to a pink v-neck sweater. The pocket square is also well chosen to continue with the pink and navy from the tie but in a different pattern. A tie and pocket square should always combine, but never match. The flower on the lapel is an accoutrement that seems to be having a bit of a return in style as of late. In my mind this man is wearing tailored navy pants and not the seersucker pants because then it would be a bit too much pink, à mon avis. This would be a great look for a race or polo match in the summer, or just a nice Sunday brunch.

I suspect this model would not care about the effect his ensemble had on women...and the v-neck looks silly under seersucker..since the latter is a hot weather jacket.....why one Earth would one wear a sweater underneath??

Where do you come up with this pretentious malarkey? Does a sweater under a seersucker jacket (pink, pink, pink and darted) really make sense?

WASPs don't wear ensembles with 'accoutrements'.

Who wears a sweater with a seersucker coat - isn't that self-defeating? Also, isn't a stiff collar not quite right with a sweater, stubble, seersucker?

The colors and patterns are well done though.

I like pink more than does the average chap. But this ensemble is a bit too much.

Isn't a sweater underneath seersucker a bit of a paradox?

This is quite overdone for my taste, and I agree that the pairing of a sweater with a seersucker jacket is just silly and certainly not trad. I do like the pink - a pleasant change from the comparatively mundane blue and tan ones that I own.
