☆ Can the T-Shirt Be Perfected?
  + stars: | 2023-08-27 | by ( Grace Cook | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
About five dozen people lost jobs when Stitch Fix ceased operations at the factory and mill in November, Mr. Ford said. By March, the facilities had reopened as Buck Mason Knitting Mills, and several of the employees who had worked at them for Stitch Fix had been rehired. The cloth mill in Shillington has started to produce fabrics for Buck Mason’s T-shirts and other tops using cotton grown in California, Georgia and Texas. Albert Bareika, who was hired by Buck Mason as the mill’s knitting lead in January, said there were plans to release a limited-edition T-shirt made with fabric produced at the facility on a 1940s-era Singer Supreme machine. Its Singer Supreme machine is one of a few still in operation, added Mr. Bareika, 66, who lives in nearby Leesport, Pa., and had previously worked for Stitch Fix at the mill.

Sydney Kempler, who owns eight versions from a range of brands, said she finds popcorn fabrics look dressier and “more expensive” than flat, flimsy Lycra. Sabra Krock, creative director of swimwear retailer Everything But Water, said the real draw of crinkle suits is their excellent elasticity: “They’re so accommodating for many different shapes and sizes.”Here are some popcorn swimsuits that caught our attention.

☆ Don’t Wear Blah Gingham Like a Finance Bro. Go for This Actually Cool Pattern Instead.

DON’T BE THESE GUYS Textbook blue-and-white gingham shirts are a blah, corporate staple these days. Photo: RYAN MESINA/THE WALL STREET JOURNALEARLIER THIS YEAR, Brett Miles surprised himself. The 37-year-old left his London finance job and moved to Milan to start afresh. Step one: He bought a pair of pants bolder and more fashion-forward than anything he’d worn in his previous corporate life. “They’re my liberation pants,” said Miles.

GET ON THE BALL Step up your shoe game with these five rounded pairs. “I HAVE very beautiful feet,” proclaimed Cassi Namoda, 34, an artist in East Hampton, N.Y. She insists she’s “not being conceited,” just stating a fact. What does she credit for making her pedicured tootsies so aesthetically pleasing, callus-free and baby-soft? Her refusal to “wear shoes that pinch—ever.” She mainly sticks to pairs with round toes.
☆ Ugly As Sin and Toastier Than Hades: Meet the Puffer Shoe

LAST DECEMBER, Marcus Wilson cracked. They resemble “the slippers my nana once wore,” Mr. Wilson said. “But they’re so warm I don’t care.”Behold the puffer—a clumpy, shlumpy, wildly unsexy breed of “ugly shoe” that makes Crocs look like Manolos. Basically parkas for your toes, these men’s and women’s styles are generally crafted from layers of padded insulation and water-resistant nylon. Prada makes a hefty boot version; Ugg offers a clog-like take; and Nike sells a fluffed-up mule.

THE FIRST TIME Racil Chalhoub, 39, a womenswear designer from Beirut, decided to buy men’s clothing, she was standing in a sea of denim at Abercrombie & Fitch in Los Angeles. This was the early aughts—when many women’s jeans were so snug and low-cut that visible thongs were considered a viable accessory. But Ms. Chalhoub craved loose, roomy hip-huggers. “Everything for women was fitted or flared,” she said. Ms. Chalhoub even launched her own women’s tuxedo brand, Racil, in 2015.
