You must be looking sleek for a sport match these days
Loving the texture of it


The mill must have made a batch for PRL, I have some of their pants that are nearly (if not) identical. 90/10 wool/cashmere in my case, Corneliani made. I dig the pants, love the bow-tie.

Pretty nice sir :) The socks goes great with the tie haha!

I don't usually do this, and it might be my first post. However, I've been lurking this thread for ages and I'm getting tired of this. Relax with your posts man, take your consistent oneliners in the thumbs-up. And loose the ''Haha'' in every sentence.

More f'length for TB. It's gratifying to realize that I used to fill out this suit, but also annoying to realize that it now needs some work to be less tent-like.

Welcome to the forum, looks pretty decent. Some comments:
As CDHagg said, better camera angle will help.
SF currently has a thing about collar points being long enough to go under the jacket lapels... personally I think those are fine but just to note
shoes are nice, maybe not quite my first choice of shade for that suit. Can't figure out if they're too light or too dark actually but something's throwing me off there
and you already know that with your, ahem, body shape, that double vents will fit you better.
love the cinch-back waist there.
if your shirt has button cuffs, move the buttons over so the sleeves don't fall down onto your hands like that.
I know it sounds crazy but if I'm feeling cheap and need to slim my shirt down a bit (see your back photo), i'll get the center pleat sewen down to reduce the midsection by about an inch, as long as you don't mind it being a bit tight around the upper back

I think the colour of the shoes are dubious due to the almost identical colour of the wood floor. It did cross my mind that they could be too light for the suit but I wanted a tan shoe for my first proper pair and depending on what polish I use, I can probably darken them significantly. I'll get some black oxfords at some point and something burgundy or oxblood.

I was going to get the sleeve buttons of the shirt moved over but it hadn't occurred to me to tailor it any further. Would this be something that a place that just does adjustments could do or would I need a bona fide tailor? (This question no doubt sounds absurd, but I really am out of my depth!)

I realize that "these colors" are Kryptonite to you, but let us have our brief moment in the sun. Our long nightmare is over. :D Your Spartans will go to the Final Four. Most likely, we will not.

In the picture, I'm wearing a suit.

That is neat. For some reason it made me think of Escher and that a Drawing Hands PS would be awesome.

I made the mistake of going on thearmoury last night. They had a PS that was a reproduction/inspired by that really famous unicorn tapestry from france. Me and the missus loved it until we saw that it was drakes, and "on sale" for 800 pounds.
