Certainly not inspiration for the modern men’s suit, but then again it’s only the four buttons and the way the trousers are cut that is are really off trend. Everything else, from the fob chain to the fact that the suit is three pieced, shows you just how little men’s tailored wear has changed over the decades.

This vintage picture comes to us from 1892 and Shorpy.

Late one Oxford night Daniel P Dykes set about creating a fashion publication that would go someway to being an arbiter on fashion as it appeals to the emerging power generations: those who don't remember a world without the Internet and for whom work plays second fiddle to pleasure. And so Fashionising.com was born as a publication for those who were focussed not just on fashion's trends, but on society's too, and how those trends could all go to heighten the art of living. Hence, Daniel sees a future where, for those young at heart, both fashion and style are grounded in traditional quality, but with a youthful, sensualised edge. Daniel is Fashionising.com's Editor in Chief and Chairman.
