Thank you kindly. I used a Lumix LX100. That kind of angle would definitely affect perspective. I typically aim for about shoulder length and shoot from as far away as possible. Hard to picture a 6'2 guy wearing a 46L. The jacket must be quite short.- Michael81

@Zerase @Jazzthief The suit is from 2017, so it might be they have modified the lapels since then. They do seem a bit lower, but that could also be the angle of the OP's photo. Generally speaking I don't like peak lapels on a single breasted, non tuxedo suit. I got this suit because of the...- Michael81

I have that same Washington (old photo). I don't wear it much because A) I dislike the lapels and ticket pocket and B) I'm in sweatpants pretty much all the time these days. I'll replace it with a custom made when I get the vaccine. Also 6'2, but narrower in the shoulder. I'm a 48L but took...- Michael81

I'm going to echo everyone else in saying there is no need to shorten that jacket. Looks great. Length and proportions are perfect. Button stance is exactly where it should be (at the natural waist) and it drapes really nicely over the hips. You wouldn't get that with a shorter jacket.- Michael81

I have it in the Braddon. I guess they switched that fabric to the Brentwood. Speaking as a tall, slim guy, that model is insanely slim.- Michael81

Those are the Braddon, if I'm not mistaken. I have the same pair. Don't really wear them so much because they're rather narrow. Edit: Or not.- Michael81

That shirt looks a bit dated to me. I would prefer more subtle stripe, or better yet, a plain shirt in a fit like this. But the suit is excellent.- Michael81

I agree, it is a much better presentation of the suit. I'm also fairly narrow so I would say the lapels are proportionally correct.- Michael81

It's a poorly composed photo. I tried to make do with the three seconds of daylight we get at this time of year and the results speak for themselves. I've posted this suit before and it's been well received.- Michael81

Not sure if 100% cotton can be considered solaro but it does have a solaro finish.- Michael81

Yeah, hard to beat for the price. But it's 100% cotton if I recall correctly and it looked a little cheap to my eyes.- Michael81

In my opinion he's better off. That suit does not look nearly as nice in person.- Michael81

The proportions are not ideal. The trousers are at best a medium rise. They tend to fall down a bit because I have a narrow waist and wasn't wearing suspenders. I am reasonably tall (188cm / 6'2) and have a long torso, which accentuates the problem. The jacket has a relatively high button stance...- Michael81
