I like the selection of colors! Very impressed with the shoes! Gorgeous shoes!

I would only be changed palitere color shirt would take or white, or white collar, but the blue stripe. But this is a subjective opinion.

It must be Friday - everyone is doing a blazer and contrasting trousers.

Everything is BB, save for the belt and the socks.

This is an all over great look, but what really makes it stand out (imho) are the great linen(?) pants. Are they also the work of mr Pronin?

Very nice! Orange and gray - it is always very advantageous and elegant.

Praise gratefully received, sir!
Speechless. Dig, you're officially a baller now, your wife must be so proud to show you off :)
Hah, baller! Thanks! The problem with a goal is that once you achieve it, it becomes a new standard that must be maintained. I hope I'm up to it. As to the wife, she's determined to step up her game as well. That's a dividend I hadn't expected going in to this.

This picture is quite simply the best I've seen from you.
When I went back to the camera and previewed the shot, I picked up the tripod, retracted the legs, put the rig in the car and quit for the day. I felt like George Costanza going out on a high note. "That's it for me!" Thank you, James!

You really think it's too short? Seems like a pretty traditional length to me, but MC isn't my thing.


Eason,

The jacket is a tad short by traditional standards - but not at all short by fashion standards of the moment. And when I look at your overall proportions from head to toe I think the length is about right. As long as it covers your ass in the back the rest is just a matter of personal taste.

I would consider the sleeve length though - seems just a smidge long (should hit at your wrist bone - not down on your hands. Unless of course you wish not to show any shirt cuff - as your shirt cuff should be about where your coat sleeve is now.

I know that slim trousers are very fashionable right now but I encourage you take a hard look at your overall proportions in this suit and consider if you don't think it feels a bit top heavy. Just a slightly more full trouser might be an improvement. If not this suit then one of the next ones.

All in all it's a fine first bespoke and once finished, styled and worn properly will be a fine thing.

All things are beautiful, even masterpiece, but together they swill not play. Perhaps this is a false impression in the photo? But once again - every thing - beautiful! Thanks for the photos of beautiful things!

Thank you! These pants by Pronin, this fabric from Ermenegildo Zegna, of wool - linen - silk.

agree with everything here, although i'm less ready to say the trousers are too slim until i see a better picture with more light. the fabric is too dark to really tell in these pictures.

I luvs me some navy BB blazer! Nicely played sir. Is there a bit more blue in the slacks or is the color in the footwear shot more accurate. (I'm hoping for the blue).

Sadly enough, the colors in the photos are accurate. The socks are too blue for the rest of the fit - ironically enough, I have the same socks in grey, which, in hindsight, would have worked much better.

For the record, the blazer is a Regent model, with side vents - more shape than any other model of blazer shown by BB at the time of purchase.

Let me add to the chorus of congrats on your latest posting - your shot of you descending the stairs is quite handsome - I am not surprised that you decided to end on a high note! :slayer:
