The Popo 06/12/22 12:27:15 PM #1:	Im not saying its 100% similar, but mens formalwear has typically been dress pants, a dress shirt, tie, and jacket (vest optional) for over a century now. You could make a case that it goes back further than that, but at least about 100 years ago, it looks fairly similar to what we wear today. Fashion is constantly changing, but this item has been fairly consistent for a really long time.

It just seems odd to me that this has been so consistent. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran <cite>The Popo posted [p:965747877] in How has me...
