    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    Jeff is right. It's funny to see that some of them still can't help themselves, they just won't let it go will they. How silly. Some people should take note of the way Despos's delivers his advice, he obviously knows the meaning of the word "critique" and has some class to go with it.

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    Almost all the criticism was based on the head on, full length front and back views, which have been curiously omitted this time around. These cropped, slightly side angle shots are much more flattering. These shots are better because they were taken by someone else from the proper height and...

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    Now a real expert has come along and given a detailed and quite dispassionate analysis...and the OP has shown that he can take some constructive criticism. For those who wanted to learn something, they finally got it. (I know I did.) For those who cherished this thread for its potential as a...

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    You seem eager to return to this tailor. Based on how many things went wrong with the current suit, I would be hesitant to go back. There are not many other choices here really, unless I hop on a plane somewhere. There are a couple of other Tailors with apparently similar standards but better...

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    madjbs A few suggestions to make your next suit fit better. The cut of the trouser does not match your figure. the back rise is too long, causing the massive wrinkling under your seat. Your right hip is about 3/4" higher than your left. Follow the line of the waistband and notice how it rises on...

    For those who did not get to see the origional photos here is one that I will leave on the thread before departing the forum.

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    a few posters here are really giving "SF" the benefit of the doubt. madjbs just get the pants tailored to your liking (or remade) and don't worry about posting pics again or providing fodder for the bored. Thanks That is what I shall do. The final say is that I am happy with the result, sure...

    Well it was fun while it lasted but I can't be bothered anymore.

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    I think OP you still have a lot of growing up to do. I don't mean this in any offensive manner, I have my respect for you as I am a stranger to you, and I will say this in a very considerable way possible. It is obvious that OP you are yet trapped in your egotistic box that many of us were once...

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    I have no idea what you're talking about. Pics would really help. For some reason I don't feel you are asking with the best intentions. Sorry if that is incorrect.

    Metlin, thanks for the encouragement but as you can see its not shared by all!

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    Interesting comment but I think a longer center vent on a short jacket would look rediculous. Why do you think otherwise?

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    I post fits all the time. Some are winners, some are losers. I don't take down my pictures when I post a turd...I just take my beating and move on. Sometimes, I will argue over some criticism I don't feel is warranted, or don't like the way it is dispensed, but I am not taking my pics down...

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    Think what you like, doesn't bother me. I have been completly reasonable thoughout.

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    And what opinion would that be? That your 'bespoke' suit looks awesome and anyone criticising it just doesn't understand the advanced aesthetic that you're aiming for? Far from it, why don't you read the thread and in particular the criticism that I made of the suit in the original and 2nd or...

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    Was it always that short, or you had it tailored like that? It was made that way from the start, I don't know how much fabric is left.

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    I didn't see the pictures, I did see the reaction to the comments. I don't think that the comments were insulting, I think that the OP has very thin skin. Most were fine, some weren't. Some posts from Gent and GBR were unacceptable in my opinion. Whether you have thick or thin skin it does not...

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    It is very difficult to lengthen a jacket I thought? Otherwise I might have it lengthened by an inch.

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    That is true but it is rather hypocritical. Don't throw stones in glass houses.......

    Critique my first bespoke suit, what do you think?

    The reasons I took the pictures down are stated above. It has nothing to do with not liking what I heard. Perfect pictures of your own perfect suits would give your opinions validity for a start. It would also show that the people that love to insult are actually capable of taking as well, it...
