Has anyone noted yet how this looks semi-double breasted ? I'm sure the overlap was taken away in the final stages, but I like how it looks as is- it sort of gets the best of both the single and double breasted worlds.
This from the shop I worked at in NYC in 1974. DB to the top button, Sb below.
The only one made while I was there was delivered to this guy. Don't know why it didn't catch on!
Who is that guy? :confused:
I think he was asking about the other guy. It's Voxsartoria before he began dyeing his hair. I think it's ok to disclose this as Voxsartoria has joined forces with Moo to leave the forum.

I will join forces with Moo when I find him, which I am determined to do.

He is missed.

Is it not true that your retirement was to free up more time to devote to the pursuit of finding Moo?

It's like a sartorial mullet: business in front, party in back!

The stance looks a bit high? I like the chest. The material looks really light and casual, almost like cotton.

Bill - looks great. Is that one of Mina's house fabrics? Looks like there's a bit of green in there as well. Also, love the tie. Mind sharing the maker?

Thanks, D.

This is another of my jackets from Mina in the defunct Carlo Barbera jacketings for H. Lesser. This one is a 13oz.

Tie is a E. G. Cappelli grenadine, square is an E. G. Cappelli madder.

Wow, totally opposite of what I thought. I just started a suit today with my tailor is Carlo Barbera for H. Lesser. 11oz Royal Blue herringbone.
