Tweed?

The new stylish thoughts about the upcommig tweed clothing?

I remember tweed from ages ago when I was a child. I remember it being wooly like and itchy...WHY WOULD ANYONE wanna brong that back?

:rolleyes:

Just wondering if anyone else thinks the same?

Hmm, haven't really seen much of the new season's clothes yet - but this sounds like something I'd be rather keen on avoiding.

I dunno, tweed tends to put me in mind of ladies with poofy hair (a la Princess Anne) wearing tweed and jodphurs whilst retouching their frosted blue eyeshadow.

Ooooohhhh no, don't dis the tweed. It's been the staple of the dandy since 2000 and has made an appearance in designer fall lines and highstreet winters every year since. A nice pair of tweed trews can be worn casually with a runners, t-shirt and scarf in the Autumn or dressed up with a sexy pair of spikes.....mmmm roll on winter cos I'm missing my tweeds.

You mean tweed can look good? I don't know now, I've never actually seen someone wearing tweed and thought "hey that looks nice". Feel free to prove me wrong though!

tweed is no good in trousers unless you are of the very slender-legged variety

V true, and I think ye gotta have a really good ass as well. I won't lie, there are few that can pull them off....feeling panic, best get down the gym before the tweed season.

I like tweed, I have a couple of tweed hats and a tweed sports coat, but as for trousers... I'm not really too sure on it tbh. But a lass with a nice tweed cap, and a pair of green wellies and a bit of straw sticking out of her mouth will drive me wild anyday :cool:

Hmm, Tweed jacket with leather elbow patches.

Marge: Homer, thats suppose to be a tweed jacket with leather elbow patches, not the other way around... you've ruined a perfectly good jacket.
Homer: Correction, 2 perfectly good jackets!

Tweed - as worn by all the 50 something lecturers in my subject at uni. I won't be wearing that then!

Besides, it would have to be lined so as not to be itchy and it's bound to end up really bulky. I've seen some nice looking tweed suits for women in photos but I'm still not convinced it would be comfortable. Also, don't they use urine to soften the material?
