Hi--my two cents:

- Three things that really stand out to me:
big collar gap in photo #2
- Something odd about the right lapel--does not roll correctly in photo #2 compared to left lapel. Not sure if this can be fixed by pressing but I'd ask
- I'd let the waist out--looks too suppressed, especially combined with the extended shoulders.

trousers seem to hang decently well though I'd shorten them. Not a fan of the skinny trouser leg openings but I know it's the stylish thing to do at the moment.

The drop looks weird. It appears from the pics that they went further off the skin for the shoulders and chest and less on the waist. It's hard to tell, but I bet everything from your sternum up is too big and the waist is too small. The collar looks way too big (coming off the back of your neck), but that can also be caused by the shoulders/back being too big, not necessarily from the collar being too long.
