Melbourne Candid Series #1028 Elizabeth St

 


I was always advised that one should own several suits before embarking on a professional career. However, for the past twenty years, I have worn the same suit, now so worn that even the sleeves bear holes.

  1. Perhaps it is time you treated yourself to a new suit? This fellow does not look happy. Your photo is like two ships passing in the night with no communication between them.

    1. I am finding it an unnecessary thing to do since I spent extra with no difference to my income

  3. Very enigmatic -- well dressed, yet no tie -- and what or who is he looking at so intently?

  4. I live in the part of the US that NO one wears a suit. Men look so sharp in one.

  8. Well, if you don't find suits necessary for your career, then it's okay too. My husband used to wear suits and ties to the office, but his colleagues, even his boss, all wore very casually and that made him so unfit in with the team's vibe.

  9. It’s intriguing how something as simple as a suit can tell a story of years gone by, of experiences lived, and how it can become a silent witness to one’s journey. Your reflection on the same suit over the years gives a sense of both nostalgia and resilience, a metaphor for persistence despite the wear and tear of time. It’s interesting how clothing, often seen as temporary or replaceable, can carry so much more significance.

  11. An interesting photo and enjoyed. Since we retired my husband wears a suit very rarely.

  12. The difficult thing isn't making the suit last, it's making it fit you well...
