Rod Serling Style – Early 1960’s Twilight Zone
March 17, 2010
It baffles me that Rod Serling never makes a best dressed list. Â Here’s a look back at some of my favorite looks for Mr. Serling from the Twilight Zone.
From "Dust" - January 6, 1961 - Amazing 2 button sack suit, satin tie, and spread collar white oxford shirt
From "A Most Unusual Camera" - December 16, 1960 - Great 3 roll 2 sack suit, satin tie with vertical stripes, and white oxford spread collar shirt
A more relaxed Serling from "A World of His Own" - July 1, 1960 (One of Serlings first appearances as host of the show)
From "Four O'Clock" - April 6, 1962 - Great flecked 3 roll 2 sack suit and white oxford tab collar
From "King Nine will not Return" - September 30, 1960 - Classic Serling, black mohair 3 roll 2 sack suit, white oxford spread collar, foulard tie, Hamilton Ventura and a paratroopers bracelet
From "Mr. Garrity and the Graves" - May 8, 1964 - Great Tweed 3 roll 2 blazer, white oxford button down collar, and tie
From "The Dummy" - May 4, 1962 - Amazing sack suit, tab collar, and skinny tie. You'll also notice Mr. Serling's paratroopers WWII bracelet on his right wrist.
From "The Trouble with Templeton" - December 9, 1960 - Amazing Repp Stripe tie
From "The Obsolete Man" - June 2, 1961 - Signature Serling, black 3 roll 2 blazer with pleating details, white oxford spread collar, and skinny tie. Also note Mr. Serling's signature cigarette
From "The Man in the Bottle" - October 7, 1960 - Again, Signature Serling at it's best. If you look closely, you'll notice the flecked wool detail on Rod's blazer. The foulard skinny tie is also amazing!
From "Two" - September 15, 1961 - Amazing combination of a 3 roll 2 tweed blazer, white oxford club collar with a tie bar, and skinny printed madder tie.
From "Night of the Meek" - December 23, 1960 - Bundled up in a great tweed overcoat and plaid scarf. I'm sure there's an amazing mohair sack suit, white oxford, and skinny tie underneath.
From "A Kind of Stopwatch" - October 18, 1963 - Amazing mohair shark skin sack suit!

Civil Rights Style
August 1, 2009
Lately I’ve been looking at a lot of old images from the civil rights movement of the 1950’s – 1960’s. I’m obsessed with how stylish everyone was. Below are some of my favorites.
A sartorial savvy Martin Luther King Jr. in this 1956 photograph with fellow civil rights leader Bayard Rustin. I love Dr. King's flecked blazer and skinny tie.
Nine students who were enrolled in Little Rock Central High School in 1957. I love the dresses and glasses on the ladies and the gentlemen look great in their white oxford.
Dr. King and Coretta Scott King dressed to the nines! Coretta Scott King's feather hat is incredible!
March in Alabama 1965 - The hats, suits, and ties are great!
Sammy Davis Jr. and Roy Wilkins at the 1963 march in Washington D.C.
Writer James Baldwin with Charlton Heston and Marlon Brando at the 1963 March. These Gents look amazing in their sack suits.

Malcolm X - 1964; great skinny tie and tie clip. I also love the horn rim frames
Sidney Poitier, Harry Belafonte, and Charlton Heston at the 1963 march looking great in sack suits and white oxford. The pocket squares are a great touch.
Amazing style! I just love the sack suits and hats.

I love that EVERYONE was in a suit and tie!
