[luftvier]



Luftvier could you provide pic examples of someone executing a sack suit perfectly?

Hello Everybody! New here. Sorry for the phone pics, I'm at work.

A couple weeks ago. Way back when it was still summer.

Who made your suit?

 

[mimo]

One man's ill fitting and old man-ish is another's well-fitting sack suit (another reason I don't bother to post full-length pics anymore; bsides the hassle, I don't want to hear about members' dislike of sack silhouette).

Some irony about the lapels — this is the oldest of the suits I've recently worn, a Chippworth from the 60s.
I think Manton's rubbing off on me. The red tie doesn't sit well with me at all.

To my mind, it's a plus that you don't feel obliged to wear jackets two sizes too small or crotch-crushing narrow short trousers, just because you once saw Ryan Gosling wearing something like that. Classic and stylish, and **** this week's trend. Big respect to that.

Re. your tie, to be honest I wouldn't choose a bright red either (this is the guy with green shoelaces, but..). Sock and lace excesses aside, I prefer a more muted colour in my tie usually. However, I think if you had a more city-like plainer shirt, perhaps with a spread collar, even this strong red would balance just fine with the formal suit. As for your lapels, I like your wide peaks. Surely it's this average notch lapel that's the conservative choice? Doesn't surprise me that this is the old one.

Despite your vicious opprobrium to my shoelaces, I rather like your style, Mr Luftvier. Follow no-one!

Flash on a grey morning makes it very gangster...true color is more like the indoor shots.
