“Sartorial” can be related to humor or tailoring.
- chihuahua 8y agoOnly tailoring, according to Webster's dictionary. Perhaps you're thinking of "satirical" ?
- StavrosK 8y agoCan you point me to a reference for that? I can't find it anywhere, and didn't know the word relating to anything other than tailors.
- asimpletune 8y agoWhen I first read that line, I confused "sartorial" with "sardonic", so I was surprised to find out what sartorial meant. However, I also have a Spanish dictionary enabled on my phone, so one of the Spanish-english entries mentioned "pertaining to humor". This was a mistake on my part though, because later I looked more closely and I think the entry was more referring to the usage like "sartorial wit", which would still be about clothes. So, basically I was confused.
