I found it interesting that most people voted for the three-button as the most "stylish". There are a few reasons for that, one of which being that George W. Bush never wears them.
However, that's not what I've been seeing. The most "new" looking suits I've seen recently have been 2-buttons, albeit 2-buttons with a much higher button stance than the stuff Dubya wears. A lot of the suits from lines such as Paul Smith, Hermes, and Brioni are in that topology, often but not always in combination with peaked lapels. Indeed, my favourite R2W suit this season is Hermes' high-stance two button with besom pockets (including a ticket pocket)
Peace,

PS: Did anyone else want to tuck President Carter's tie into his jacket for his appearance on Larry King tonight? But then again, when you've helped as many people as he has, I suppose how you dress is utterly immaterial.
