This outfit is nice, it's a shame nothing fits correctly, like not even a little. A lot of potential. Perhaps stop doing pushups and eating for 2 months or buy larger clothing and get a new tailor?

really anthony? I would let the jacket out an inch or two, but the shirt, sleeves, trousers fit pretty nicely. it really isn't bad.



before



and after a dinner in 90°F



linen shirt + unlined linen suit.

suit is new and hasn't been dry cleaned yet, so I expect the trousers and sleeves to shrink a little.

Have a nice day.

No way. The jacket could be a size too small. You can't alter the chest of a RTW jacket. You can see the bowing of the lapels, it might aleviate with letting the side seams out a bit. The waist is also too tight, the trousers are way too tight from top to bottom. I also personally think wearing a tie pin up that high is just a cry for attention, as is the wacky pocketsquare fold.

But clapy, awesome hair.

Also, the sleeves are too narrow and the trousers are stacking and fit more like jeans throughout. The gentleman has a good eye for clothes, but not for how they should fit.
