I think I'll have the shirt cuffs taken in, then see how this shirt looks with the jacket. Maybe another fit pic after that will settle the debate.

Thanks for the PS advice, Rob. I have but one PS so far, so I'll have to start building my collection. Maybe I'll pick up a white linen from Kent Wang.

Love this pic, StanVan. Good stuff lately. As a neophyte in this area, I can't comment on the fit, but I like what I see overall.

You can have that fixed when you take it in to have its sleeves lengthened. The shirt sleeves look fine to me. (The left-hand cuff might be hanging just a little low, but not enough that it bothers me.)
Right on. Thanks for the advice, TB. (cough cough

) It's an Epaulet Caine. Funny, I just had the sleeves shortened about a week ago--looks like I may have to have the tailor hit the undo button.

Wish I could tie it as well as you tie yours. Can you direct me to a thread or some other site that shows how to get those perfect FIH knots of yours? - K

No site - just practice, practice, practice. You need to play around with it a bit. It takes me some time to tie my ties.
