As opposed to the navy DB that works well on tall and thin AND those 4'6" and 300lbs?

what a Goober, he is wearing a BD with a DB

BTW, that DB is actually pretty bad. Bad lapels, bad pick stitching, buttons are off. doesn't fit him that great but it's most likely RTW.

no, there is already a threak for that (sartorial mythbusting), I just think the person that mentioned that it was the best navy DB was confusing a good looking, fit, stylish young man in a suit with a stylish suit.

For you and AlanC who had expressed interest in my 12/6 DB:

I do have the missing button.

I keep thinking of the line from QUADROPHENIA: "tight, buttoned up, know what they're showing."

I'm trying to look past the hideous shirt and tie, but it's difficult.
