Recently, I sent an e-mail to my mother that I may or may not have written about here. In any case, I am hoping that some of you can help me with this, since it's slightly visual. For those who don't know me well, I am a woman but am strictly interested in men's attire and am seekingan Edwardian suit. I also have no time for modern materials in reproductions. Eventually, I wish to own formal and semi-formal clothing. But now, I am seeking informal daywear for regular use when going out. Please tell me if this modern suit is, in fact, a lounge/sack suit and if it is actually Edwardian in style. I am providing the letter in its entirety both for those who are curious and for comparison.

"  I remember some time ago, we were talking about suits, and I was trying to describe what I wanted.  I mentioned that it was a lounge or sack suit, but that I couldn't find examples. Now, I have.  This is a lounge suit.  It's the sort of thing that would be worn daily to almost every informal occasion, from business meetings, to shopping, to luncheon with friends, to a walk around the park, to seeing a doctor or getting a haircut.  It was already sold.  I am just showing it to you so that you know what I am talking about.

This is a modern reproduction but sounds like it has no synthetic materials.  It can be worn with buttoned boots as shown, but also with Oxfords or other lace-up shoes.  And yes, some cuffs can be turned up on suits from that era, so I was wrong about that.  This is grey, but they also make blue, pin striped, and brown.  I am not sure if this is a lounge suit, as it doesn't say, but I am guessing it is.  These are always available.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/284346733105

This, in contrast, is truly formal daywear, suitable for a wedding or some other serious occasion.  I certainly don't need it now. The night equivalent would be black tie for semi-formal and white tie for formal occasions.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/397023472497

  Since I mentioned it the last time we spoke about this, I did a bit of research.  There is such a thing as walking suits.  They are quite informal (more so than lounge suits) and are normally used in the country or when out for city strolls, but not for everyday occasions.  Regardless, I can't find one."

Here are two older posts of mine that may be of interest to the dandies, dandy lovers, historians, and those curious about antique fashions.

In this first post, I will provide links related to men's fashion during the Regency and Edwardian periods. My apologies to those who prefer Victorian styles, but I don't know much about them. I am, however, willing to learn. My interest in Regency clothing and culture is connected to my love of dandyism, and my interest in Edwardian clothing is because that is how I wish to dress personally.

https://dandylover1.dreamwidth.org/210125.html

Here, you will find links pertaining to dandies and dandyism as a whole. It is the culmination of at least five years of research, though I am constantly finding new things to add to my collection and am always open to suggestions. Topics include General Links on Dandyism, Books, Beau Brummell, and Regency Dandies.

English Version:

After the first edition of the event, we are already preparing for the next one - Saturday, June 28th - exploring new locations.

The Bacchanalias are informal and carefree social events for the Kinky/BDSM community in Lisbon. Despite the name of the initiative, they are social events and not play parties.

Bacchanalias are inclusive events, with an open and unprejudiced mindset, open to the entire community (local or not).

The format of the event is a dinner followed by drinks/socializing in the Lisbon area. Participants can sign up for one or the other or both. Both the dinner and the subsequent socializing will be held in public spaces in Lisbon. Since these are public spaces, the dress code will necessarily be casual/discreet.

Dinner will be served as a group menu with a fixed price per person, with meat, fish and vegetarian options. The price per person for dinner, including starter, main course, drink and coffee, will be approximately €25 per person, with the exact price being announced in due time. Registrations will be made only by private message and will only be confirmed after a deposit has been paid, yet to be announced. Registrations will close one week before the event.

Since this post is about fashion, let me start by answering the question that I am sure will be on your mind upon seeing my name. No, I am not related to The Beau. However, I love dandyism as a whole, and I took this name in tribute. I am also working to have his book, Male and Female Costume, published online freely, but that's for another post and time. At any rate, I am forty-one and am passionate about antique menswear, Regency as a scholarly pursuit, and Edwardian for daily wear. Naturally, I am constantly researching and trying to expand upon my knowledge. I am totally blind, so I must rely on descriptions rather than images.

I am the type who would like to wear a three-piece suit and accessories everywhere I go. I've decided that for my first one, I should get a lounge suit, since I can wear it almost anywhere during the day, provided it's not a formal occasion. I will eventually have morning wear, white tie, black tie, and informal evening wear, but that's for later. I have found some sites which create reproductions of men's Edwardian suits, but most use synthetic materials and/or zippers, which I refuse to wear, and none uses fabrics of the proper thickness. I found sites that make women's suits with men's specifications (no ridiculous enhancements of breasts, butt, shallow pockets, soft colours, buttons on the wrong sides of shirts, etc.) but they only make modern clothing. Ebay and Etsy occasionally have some authentic pieces, but most are too formal for daily use, even by Edwardian standards! I am also having difficulty with finding some accessories, such as proper ties and socks without elastic. My other option is to have a suit commissioned, but for that, I need to find a good tailor. The best in the world, in my opinion, is Zack Pinsent, but he's in England and I'm in America (New Jersey).

I am seeking those who share my interest in antique menswear, and perhaps some advice as to where I can find such clothing and/or accessories.

For those who are interested in my journey so far, here is my dreamwidth post containing all sorts of links related to Regency and Edwardian menswear.

Im starting „African Motors“ (a little late I know) and I’m a bit baffled (again) at this tendency to emphasise #African innovation and creativity in the #informal sector. It’s true of course but shouldn’t the point of an African #histoftech be to question the narrative of progress through innovation?

Well that's just an awful oversimplification. What #wages are even being "stolen" in wageless businesses like #sarisari stores (often if not always run by families right in their homes) in the #Philippines? Or 100% driver-operator owned, independent #jeepneys? Or all of #informal work, really. ​:seija_coffee:​

Reading old #Marxist critiques of #technology as a tool in the hands of capitalists to separate the workers from control over the production process. And I’m wondering if this process has been reversed today, esp in #informal economies. How can we develop critical tools necessary to analyse this as a new subsumption of #labour under #capital instead of celebrating „creativity“, „everyday invention“ or „produser“ type situations. Veronica Gago has tried, can anyone recommend any other authors?
