Love it! But the socks are rumpled. My very elegant father used garters to prevent that very thing. Do they even still make sock garters for men? Does anyone know?
So I wasn't sure how I felt about his shirt/tie combination at first, I didn't think that it was very thought out but maybe that's exactly what he was thinking when he put it together, and if that's the case, then this is completely amazing.
I think there's a bit too much going on here. Hamish would have been wiser to work off the yellow in his plaid suit and match the socks to that. http://www.ItsAllStyleToMe.com
Oh! So this is Hamish Bowles! Always enjoy reading his articles. Thanks for the capture! ;) And what a great dresser he is – teal socks with burgundy tie at the opposite end, with a mustard balancing in the centre! (Resonates with the display of colours in Gucci Fall 11 Collection!)
Love everything about Hamish, he's always so vibrant and elegant. Can't decide if he's more handsome with or without the mustache, I like both looks. This is a great picture of him!
I believe Mr.Bowles may have a portrait hidden in his attic somewhere…The man doesn't age, although his manner of dress has been an inspiration for more then twenty years.. Thank you for this photo.
I think if his little file on his lap were any other colour, i wouldn't have loved the colour combination so much! i will make a concerted effort to match my stationery with my clothes from now on
Are his eyes really the same color as his socks?! Love him – he is such a wonderful writer and wit. I imagine sitting next to him at any show would be quite the treat.
I love this hue of purple and cyan and I was sooo afraid do use them. Now I see that I can use them and in a polished, preppy, well dressed way. love it!
haha he is doing the teapot pose :) Adorable. Maroon, aubergine, turquiose all on one body and still manage to look mighty dandy. Good job at capturing this gentleman. Love it.
Hamish, you blew it with the sox.
Brown sox would have lengthened the
line accenting, and not confusing,
the color choices of the shirt, tie and
pocketsquare.

He needs a class in color coordination.
All the fashion victims who scream "Matchy matchy!" at people who actually bother to coordinate the colors they're wearing can kiss my ***.
The pocket square and the shirt work together; the tie doesn't work with the square and the socks are a disaster with the rest of the palette.
