PS -- To my credit, I was wearing a Brioni cashmere sweater, but the Savoy fashion police weren't impressed.
I don't entirely see why you chose to sport the jeans, tennis shoes Steve Jobs look at Gordon Ramsay's restaurant and then complain that you were turned away. Just because you are in IT doesn't mean you can flaunt the sports jacket and tie requirement.. It's similar to wearing swim trunks and flip flops to a fine dining meal..
