Thread: To formal or not to formal, that is the question

But hey, some people love linen, I can't tell you how many Calivn Klein linen suits we have sold in the last month...

Unfortunately, we're not traveling in the near future. But hubby isn't into any high maintenance fabrics...he likes to be able to put everything in the washer and dryer, then hang and he's good to go. I'm a bit more picky as I prefer natural fabrics (but hate to iron).

I'll second that. Whoever invented the steamer should have been awarded a Nobel Prize!

Linen looks so good the first few minutes of wearing them. Saying that they are so comfy and I think we are bringing 6 linen trousers and 4 linen shirts among a mountain of other clothes for our upcomming cruise. Heck, I just ran up a dry cleaning bill for € 114!!!!!!!! For that price I insisted on having everything individualy packed in those plastic bags!!!
