I'm thinking of re-instating a cravat. I used to wear one in 1972 with a fake Ben Sherman shirt. My friends said I looked like a twit (well the actual word begin with w, but what with this being a public forum).

A light blue Adidas t shirt was my preferred outfit in the Glamrock heyday of '72....... not that adidas was really Glam, obviously.....

I bet your mates were just jealous because you looked gorgeous.

Don't think Ben Sherman had reached Hampshire by '72....

The copies were great and a third of the price. I had a light orange one. Got my mum to undo the thing (forgot the name) that went down the middle of the back (only nerds kept the thing in as bought).

Had a fake Harrington too. Fake Crombies were too dear!
