My first post :revolve:.


I don't understand why no love for this? It is pretty perfect except the little dimple on the shoulder end and slightly too short, with the trendy button positioning.

Fantastic outfit, in my opinion. I'm guessing from your cropped head that you haven't gotten a new hairstyle, though.

Jacket sleeves may be a little short; otherwise it looks like a great fit. Did you have it altered in any way?

Thanks for the approval. The sleeves may be slightly short, but I think they might have risen up slightly in the photo. The jacket is actually part of a suit from J. Crew and it has not be tailored yet. I'm not sure what to get done to it, it seems to fit almost perfectly OTR.
Agreed and you wisely left your gruesome barnet out of the pic. Well done sir!
Yes, I made sure I correctly cropped the picture. Thanks for the kind words!
+1... springy/summery... nice colors... looks great!
Thanks a lot.

I think you made a great effort, BUT....
1. lose the button down shirt collar.
2. shirt/jacket sleeves too long
3. trousers too skinny / peg leg
4. get a pocket square
5. button the second button on the jacket (it's 6x2 DB)


Completely disagree. I think it looks great. I also disagree that it's too short.

I don't mind not seeing a pocket square either. I've been wearing them less and less these days. Plus, with your color scheme, I think no pocket square works well.

If I want to be super picky, your shirt cuffs look a bit large.

Why no white tie? Also, with a tailcoat, you should really wear a vest.

2 damn hot, had a vest but took it off.


That waistcoat you wore in the last black tie photo is one of the worst fitting ones I've ever seen on here. Now wearing white tie with all that shirt, waistband and braces on display looks all kinds of wrong.
