Monocle

[edit]

I seriously doubt the monocle has made a return in England in any way, shape or form. — Chrisdone (talk) 11:56, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I think it did, as I remember seeing an ad online allowing one to purchase them, and I seriously considered it just to freak people out. Viriditas (talk) 09:22, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, more recently, Warby Parker popularized the sales of monocles. Viriditas (talk) 04:34, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

" England itself appears gradually to be coming round to The Chap's philosophy, with the return of the moustache, the monocle, tailored clothing and nightclubs celebrating 1930s glamour and 1940s austerity fashions"

This is just poor PR copy. This is not neutral. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.202.160.254 (talk) 13:51, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is, as the person above says, an ad for the magazine. It's making claims about English culture more broadly that seem unfounded. I think the article is interesting, but right now it's not a neutral article. Tulliacicero (talk) 19:17, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

if anyone epitomises a chap it is TT. There should be some kind of chap history to show this milieu even if it is a constructed one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.249.23.158 (talk) 06:53, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
