Antique Advertisement: Gentlemen's Apparel

I found this advertisement in the pages of a compendium of issues of a very old magazine, one which has yielded already two ads before . This time, I thought I'd give our "gentlemen callers" a chance to upgrade their apparel for the new season. Although why anyone would chose to wear anything waterproof against the skin, I couldn't tell you! Have fun, guys! ;)
Happy Creativity!

    Thank you. We really enjoy your feedback.
    As for those cuffs and collars, i have never met a man who would willingly want to wear a set all day, at work or otherwise!
