what is it about blondes in WHITE PANTS?


I've got a menswear for women post coming up, but in the meantime I thought I'd torment you with this photo of Corinna & Julie.

One-of-a-kind dress by Elizabeth Dye + custom suit by Duchess.

(Photo by Evrim Icoz. See more from this wedding on Rock n Roll Bride.)

Many thanks to Christina, who will be doing the heavy lifting later.

Portland is coming to San Francisco


ESB sponsor and all-around cool lady Elizabeth Dye will be in San Francisco on March 26th, along with her entire 2011 dress collection for you to try on and order.

Duchess will be there too, so why not drag your man [or your lady who wears suits]* along to try on a suit or two?

(More info here.) 

*I already felt uncomfortable about the heterosexism of my language when A Bicycle Built for Two pointed out that Duchess makes terrific suits for women "who prefer a masculine or androgynous look."

wondering where to get a custom brocade suit?



Or something slightly more understated, but with a retro vibe? Check out Duchess, Clothier of Portland. (Their seersucker beats J. Crew's any day.)

Portland, enough already. We can't take it anymore.

I stand corrected, b/t/w. GW's suit, custom made by Duchess, was in fact caramel cotton velvet.

Groom Style x 2: George and Glenn

Digging the corduroy suits. (In colors that perfectly complement the landscape. I suspect this was no accident.)
