For moments during my three years in Paris, I have tried to understand what lies behind France’s male business dress code — from the shakers at the top of the CAC 40 through mid-tier executives all the way down to the suited office workers I see daily on the street. For a Londoner, this is not necessarily easy. Beyond the tailoring of Savile Row, and a heritage in weaving and shoemaking, it is no secret that most English people do not play in the same dress league as their French counterparts.

They have plenty of white cloth to produce fine shirts from. Also flags.

They have to look good for whomever they surrendered to.

Looks like any regular businessman here in America... What am I missing?

Lol @ the French insults. Feels like I'm back in the lead up to the Iraq war era.

If they were judged against you, they likely make better OPs too

It is just stupid no history knowing dumb rednecks. They have no idea France is likely the best military power in world history, also being known as one of the toughest and grittiest as well

The blatant & daily displays of ignorance and stupidity on this board is astounding,

You got one motherfricker on here that rummages around fricking garage sales for chrissakes throwing shade on France. Dumbasses surround me.

Well you post a statement (no question mark so I imagine you are trying to 'lernt' us something)

But you quote a paragraph from the link apparently (didn't click and don't plan on it)

But in no where in the post do you back up the statement you made in the topic line.... What gives Baw?

Your threads almost always leave a ton to be desired. A lot like the Ruskies GDP or their Air Force or their Navy.

For one thing they're not all just fat as shite like Americans. It's pretty easy to look good in a suit when you're not fat. As for the British, most of them are just sloppy weirdos (see also: dental care). I think most Saville Row suits look straight out of the 90's with their big ole shoulder pads and heavy fabrics.
