I just love John Jannuzzi's "musings on the would-be sartorial choices of literary characters," especially when he presents looks that are as timeless as the characters he chooses. I can't imagine any of these outfits would be out of place any time between Gatsby's era and ours, but 1920s bluenoses and Mrs. Grundies would likely think those keen jeans fit for an all-wet ragamuffin. But a guy can’t always put on the Ritz in his glad rags; I think they’re the bee’s knees, myself.
