    OOOPS, mea maxima, y'all. Shoes discussed only one page back. I notice most of his vests, especially in later years ( greyer hair, slightly less of it) have lapels, which is a nice refined touch. About those black shoes... His great uncle liked to do things that were a little different, like suede shoes. Those things are now commonplace and considered very elegant, even cool. Maybe HRH will revolutionize "Black for town, brown for country"

    Should we meet, I will ask him about it...

    His great uncle would be -- Edvard? Best set aside as he chose to do for himself, that laddie. Sorry, way off kilter that comment (disregard, delete, ignore....)

    Prince Charles' waistcoats definitely do show a personal preference in recent years, don't they? Lapels, squared waistlines and something else that is a
    statement of his own style.... Not the left forefinger and thumb in the shallow pocket, not the single wild flower in the lapel -- what is it? Comfort?
