Hi Kiyoshi, I was interested in pulling off the leather jacket+trousers+shirt+tie look for a night out this weekend, probably all black with exception to the shirt. Just wondering what tips you can offer to pull off the look, something like look from Ovadia and Sons spring 2012. And if you had any particular brands that wont break the bank in mind I would love that too. Thank you!

Seems like that’d be hard to pull together in five days unless you plan on buying all of this in person. Do you have a leather jacket already? Because if not, then you’re probably going to end up shelling out quite a bit unless you get lucky at a thrift store. 

As for trousers, you could look into Lands’ End’s tailored fit suiting. For a black tie, I’d suggest something from The Tie Bar, which should be pretty cheap.
