Through the end of the month, Ted Baker is now taking up to 60% off jackets, suits, shirts and other proper gear. Though arguably a bit stiff — in the most literal sense of the word — Mr. Baker mostly succeeds in balancing solid-construction, youthful cuts, and reasonable price-points.
For better or worse, tell us about your personal experiences with Ted Baker.

Frankly, when we think of Old Navy, we think of brands the world would be better without. For research purposes, we do visit the store, but only to find the highly-disposable, mostly-unwearable dregs of a huge clothing conglomerate. Still, we love to be proven wrong, and so couldn’t resist when contributor — and Dappered.com author — Joseph Weber offered to make the case for Old Navy’s Twill blazer.
Ah, the Upper East Side’s Peter Elliot — “It’s all rich wood in the fixtures and explosive colors in the clothes,” writes Jon Caramanica in his latest “Critical Shopper” column for The Times. In stark contrast to Jon’s last profile (Nordstrom Rack with its overcrowded shelves and underwhelming stock), Peter Elliot offers patrons a highly-edited selection of pieces that pop. But, don’t assume that proper presentation always equals prohibitive pricing. On the contrary, polos run from $65-to-$75; Vans, which you can rest assured are the right ones to own, go for $80; etc. And that’s just retail. Adds Jon: “On a second visit to the store, I happened upon a quiet sale at which much of that delicate Cucinelli was half-priced, including an austere powder blue puffy vest (originally $1,315), and a lavender sweater, which fit beautifully and which now lives at my house.”
As of today, 7/7, all Peter Elliot locations are taking “30, 50, 70” percent off select S/S stock, a store rep tells us.
