Pryce’s suit is purebred English: with vest, tie with a full Windsor knot, in muted browns, grays, and blues—if you want to get cheeky you could go cream—a white pocket square (no patterns), with the shirt quite starchy with hard collar. (He’s an interesting contrast as Don’s ties are getting ever-thinner.) And on the jacket, beautiful buttonholes. As Oscar Wilde wrote, “A really well made buttonhole is the only link between art and nature.” An Englishman’s business style rested upon the idea that through conformity to tradition there is dignity.
