Unrelated point, but IMO, the slimness is revealing fit problems around the shoulder-line, arms and trousers. Of course, it may just be the snap/lighting/pose, but there is rumpling and twisting that runs counter to the aim of a slim/clean suit.
 

 

Leave it be, it's not wide at all. If anything, this is as narrow as you'd want to get with the shoulders.
 


I know you're probably nursing a hangover right about now, but you're actually more accurate than you realise with your inadvertant in vino veritas. The tie pattern is a Liberty print, inspired by vintage interior decorating patterns (maybe more grandmother's wallpaper than couch, but could be either). Liberty prints are definitely a love or loathe item. I'll let you decide which camp you fall into once you come round from your bender. :)

What exactly do you mean in regards to my suit? I'm sorta confused...

The arms looks short. The rest looks good so a quick stop at the tailor is probably a good idea.

Do you all think this jacket is good or to small on me? Thanks for the help :)

You can always tell when the american election process is ramping up again.

 

... by the way, as I recall, the Greco-Roman wrestling soon gave way to your more dynamic luchador style. All glories fade...

Interesting outfit. There are several elements I dislike, largely for irrational reasons (the tie, the turnback cuffs), but the outfit as a whole looks professional and put together with care. That's a neat trick to pull off.

I have yet to try a pair of Epaulet's myself, but the company claims that its "Tapered Rudy" model is cut with guys like you in mind.

From the website: The Tapered Rudy (Click to show)
The "Rudy" is similar to the "Walt" fit, but with more room in the thigh and seat. Typically, if you've got bigger thighs, then you have to choose between (1) pants that are too slim to be comfortable or (2) trousers with wide legs and large leg openings that are too baggy and completely swallow your shoes. The Rudy fit strikes the perfect balance with a slim waist, a slightly relaxed thigh and seat, and an elegant, graduated taper to a slim leg opening. If you're into things like cycling, competitive rowing, crossfit, or bodybuilding - and you have a hard time finding a trouser that's both comfortable and flattering - then these are the cut for you.

I love ya, Crusty, but I don't think you can rightfully claim "full powers of F-bombs" while, in the same breath, saying "f-bomb" in place of "fuck" and even declining to fully spell out the word. Just sayin'. teacha.gif

From last night to this morning, I had a change of heart as to what suit to wear, hence the mismatch of photos. Tonight is the members' reception for the newly renovated American Wing at the Met Museum.

Suit - BBGF
Shirt - BB
Tie - BB
Cufflinks - Niletti Creations, NYC
Shoes - Harris, via Barney's, NYC
Overcoat - BB
Scarf - Fortnum & Mason
Hat - Selentino

Perferably a few selected members of the Film Noir Buff Forum. That I think we can all agree on.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I will see what can be done to tighten up the collar and shoulders. As for the lapel line, I doubt much can be done there.
