A historical look at sartorial styles
Over at Plus Ultra, Raj talks about how plans to write his book on sartorial styles:
[The final] chapter will run to 584 pages and will be exclusively on the neck tie that westerners introduced to us. I will begin the chapter by hurling choice abuses at the lunatic who invented this contraption, then provide compelling evidence from medical journals on how the continued use of the tie actually constricted the jugular vein and choked the blood flow to the brain, resulting in overall mental retardation of all the inhabitants of the corporate world.

do include a chapter on the frown. having travelled a bit, it’s the one thing i see my brethren wear more than any other nationality in the world.
there are different types of frowns, from the irritated frowns at roadside beggars knocking on your car windows, to the imaginative frown as you size up an unccompanied woman aged 15-45, to the ubiquitous frown of the lady at the checkin counter, and many inscrutable frowns in between.
