How cool is that! He was just so pleasant and patient. Honestly the best service I think I've ever had. Plus he was wearing these fab wing tip shoes.</p> <p>Pil - I'm not sure Iain will be showing you all his grad outfit. He's on the shy side but when I asked if he would let me post a picture of him all dressed up, he said he would think about it. And yes he's tall...six foot three!</p> <p>I'm definitely thinking these choices in clothes will serve Iain better than a suit and get his "grown up capsule" started.</p> <p>I am always so impressed when receiving such stellar service because these days, it can be harder to find.</p> <p>Thank you all for letting me indulge myself a little </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-sons-grad-clothes#post-956257 Sat, 15 Jun 2013 00:34:20 +0000 lyn* 956257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL.

So, YLf, don't you think ;-)&nbsp;To me this whole thing sounds like a seal&nbsp;to a happy relationship with high-quality, versatile clothing pieces for your son. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-sons-grad-clothes#post-956067 Fri, 14 Jun 2013 20:54:15 +0000 MsMary 956067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that's the best story ever!&nbsp; And my goodness!&nbsp; What a fantastically dapper young man!</p> <p>Can't wait to see the finished graduation outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-sons-grad-clothes#post-956059 Fri, 14 Jun 2013 20:42:12 +0000 Anonymous 956059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a cool story! &nbsp;Your son deserves this good luck. &nbsp;Congrats to the grad! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-sons-grad-clothes#post-955988 Fri, 14 Jun 2013 19:21:13 +0000 deb 955988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great story.
