Thanks fellas - Uncontrol - I don't think the jacket is wayy too small at all , maybe the angle is giving off that effect but the sleeves from my oxford would pretty much fall through under - then again preferences. From the picture of the jacket opened you can tell the jacket gives some space. Jarude - I agree no easy task to take on lol

It is pulling in the buttoned-up picture, but you do pull it off better than most (swagger?). Can't say I approve of the shoes though

You pull off the pattern of the jacket well, which is amazing in itself, but I agree that it needs to be left open.

Thanks

It seems like madras is a very dangerous fabric lol that I like to wear apparently.

KitAkira - Yeah I was in motion in that particular picture

J that jacket does appear very tight in that pic, not sure if it is the optical illusion of the pattern combined with the waist suppression or what.

I think you could leave it buttoned up no prob. Sure it pulls a little but with the rest of that outfit it'll be understood he knows what he's doing so it's not like some newb doing up all 3 buttons. Still, with the shirt all the way buttoned, you could always leave it open if you want. It doesn't bother me in this case.

Pants might need an iron though. Actually IMO this is a good example of when things are too slim they don't work as well. I like the pants being short but they're so slim here that the creasing is going on all over hte place.

looks very natural and relaxed, like a candid shot of a guy on his way to the dryclearners to air his grievances.

I think it is just looking a little small because of bottom button + arms out slightly. The look is awesome. Love the tapered arms of the jacket, and I love how the waist suppression is making the bottom fan out. Most 3 button jackets I see hang limply and sadly at the hips :< JKissi's fits are inspirational imo

Sorry for the horrible quality picture, but I can't figure out how to take a good one with the flash on.

...or is it?? On a more constructive note, I don't think BoO suits your build.

Use the self timer and find a suitable location with plenty of natural light.

Not crazy about how this looks buttoned up. I'm not a huge fan of madras (in fact, I think your post with the madras shorts/pants last summer was the only other fit of yours I didn't like), so maybe I'm biased here.

Good post on the site, though. Though spring is young, I'm already noticing a trend in the shirts you guys are wearing this season. I get a real '90s vibe from some of the colors and patterns.
