Can one man have too much neck wear? (a study in excess)

May 27, 2009 18:14

I'm something of an accessory collector, and I recently realized that thanks to the storage problems of a small New York City apartment, I don't know what I have (the eternal problem.) I promised myself that once my exams were over, I would lay everything out and sort it.

Well, exams are over...

Beware, this way madness and a LOT of silk lies... )

scarves, shawls, cravats

Having consulted the pertinent literature, I agree with your evaluation of madness and must recommend isolation of the sort frequently used with schizophrenics and hystericals.

At the very least, the patient's access to clothiers and haberdashers should be ruthlessly restricted.

Sort of a neckwear version of the Mad Hatter? The Mad Cravatter? The Fool-ard?

I think Mad Cravatter is absolutely the best use of conjugation and Depitation ever(though not REALLY depitation, I just never get to use the word.)

Woah, that's a lot of neck pieces. If you ever want to sell that dark blue tie on the far right in the second picture, message me. I really like it, and could probably use the material for something else.

That one was made for me by my girlfriend, to match a bodice of hers in the same material, so it's not for sale. That said, let me find out for you if she has any of the fabric left.

Luckily, things of that nature pack down small!

The answer, my friend, is most definitely "NO". Too much neckwear is not a problem, it's a delight!

I figured I would find like-minded people on here.

Thank you!

That's a fun one, it's exceedingly long, so it's great in winter.

Thanks!
