You have gotta post some pics wearing these in natural light.
FWIW, all my DBs have only one jigger button no matter how they button on the outside.

So: Does R always do his DB buttonings like this?
Whnay, do you have a preference for a pleats/no pleats configuration on your trousers? I saw one of your suit trousers has a single pleat cut whereas the others have falt front ones.

I-gent special. Drapers five star 11 oz fresco. 6x2 DB, patch pockets, light horn buttons, half-lined with tie silk. I have pants in the same fabric from Ambrosi if I wanted to wear as a suit.

I'm sure you'll post pictures wearing them eventually, and I look forward to seeing "Whnay's Rubinaccis!"

Don't take this the wrong way as I have the utmost respect for the house and craft of Rubinacci, but your pictures got me thinking . . . the best bespoke I have seen has always ended up with this question . . . "Your suit/jacket looks amazing, who is the maker?"

In his case, it would appear to be a hedge against appalling tastes in color/pattern

Having tried every thing from flat front to double pleat - I think I've determined that my default from now on will be single pleat.

I only have three DBs from Rubinacci but they all have the same inner button placement.

You don't think the green patterned jacket is FU enough?

That's inspired! And, if he were to get those rawhide buttons put on his FU jacket, he could also show how his tailor boned him.
