    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

     Ace - I think a lot of the comments are caused by the camera angle as well. Do you have the ability to take another photo up higher?

    Suit Jacket Alternatives for Business Casual Attire at Work

    Corduroy sport coats would be alright as well I think, especially if you get a very casual cut that is unstructured and uses a casual pocket style. Perhaps a quilted jacket as well, though those are generally for outdoor wear in the fall.

     Did he not just say "A very old tailor in Milan"?

    WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

     I think the jacket is a bit too structured for this look. Less structure would have seemed more coherent to me. I like the belt.

    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

    TKE - I think you may have arms that are slightly longer than average, which is causing a lot of the "it's too short" comments. Many people are used to seeing a jacket end mid thumb - which is generally ok for people with average length arms. Longer arms make the gap between thumb and jacket...

     Bottom of the lapels are no good, but as PB said maybe can be tweaked. The rest is very nice though, especially the shoulder.

    Could maybe use a bit of improvement on the photography. I'm in love with this sport coat.

    Tailor Said Suit Jacket Doesn't Need to be Taken in - Is he correct?

    My suggestion would be to return all those CK suits, take the money and go to Brooks Brothers. They have a number of styles / cuts and are of good quality. Get a plain navy suit, charcoal suit, and a subtle sport coat. You'll be good for a long time with those. Use shirts and ties to change...

    Tailor Said Suit Jacket Doesn't Need to be Taken in - Is he correct?

    The 42L looks much better. Looks like the chest is just starting to bow however, which would indicate you can't go smaller. I sympathise and realize you've got the 6 CK suits that have been altered, but would urge you to 'buy less, buy better' in the future.

    Been Looking for Months, Please Point Me to the Peaks

    Check out Sierra trading post. I got my wedding suit there - Isaia single breasted, single button, peak lapel in chocolate brown. One wacked-out combination of formal and casual. Was exactly what I was looking for and everyone said I looked smashing. Suit was round $800 w/ sales I think...
