Pinstripe pants: does anyone really understand them? Are they classy, or is there, rather, something gaudy about them? Are they appropriate in some settings and not others? Do they communicate something specific about the wearer's style and taste? Are they considered to be affected, and if so, what are they affecting? Are they simply a variation on the solid pattern, or a synthesis of the solid/pattern dichotomy? I'm lost here. Does anyone have answers?

Either; depends. On the right night, with the right girl and the right cocktail--both.
Yes: some, not others.
Maybe--if their wearer is a wearer, rather than a mere slapdash thrower-on.
Yes, sometimes; and no: because Greg, affected means affected and affecting means affecting.
Neither: stripes.
Yes: me.
I'm wearing pinstripes, black pants with faded white stripes. Blue button-down tucked in, black dinner jacket. What do I look like? That's what I really want to know.
