My first WAYWRN post. This thread is full of inspiring fits.

Sorry for iPhone pics. Once I get a tripod I'll use my proper camera.

The principles and proportions r good IMO, even if the tie is about as frightening as they come.

Too much green or too much brown?
I would have taken a dark brown tie, to "center" the outfit. Here two shades of green (tie and cardigan/vest) are directly next to each other and they're slightly different shades; always looks abit out of place, I think.

Bravo Victor. You look like a young Yul Brynner.

I would really like for one of the old hands to come on board and critique this fit, just to see what they say. There are a lot of patterns, textures and colours here but they are all put together so well that I can't really find fault anywhere. Great stuff.

Great post, Victor. Although, I think what would've lifted the outfit is a rougher tie paired with the other items. Something with more texture.
What is the color of the shirt? It looks pink-ish on my screen.

@The Noodles really digging the outfits lately... That said your last one, I (just me) would have done a flat fold on the ps. Everything else just screams simplicity, no need for a point there... well, simplicity except for the socks :)

Thx for the feedback and your compliment. I totally agree that the p.s.should be a simple TV fold. My wife folded that ps hence the relectance to unfold and turn it into a TV fold. I agree with you though

Tnx. In my opinion: tie a rough texture would have been "too much". Smooth tie refreshes the overall look and makes the image less heavy.
This shirt has a beige shade.

All Eidos sportswear that was designed to be worn with tailoring, just not worn that way today. That and Barbanera Gatsbys because they are awesome.

Forward pleats look perfect, Braddock.

Thanks man!

Braddock this is masterful. Love every bit of it. The pants are single-pleat oatmeal flannel? Or just grey? Pretty sure that's what's next on my pentlist... oatmeal that is.

Only 7:30am PST and already today's fits are killing it.

Thanks! Yes, single pleats like nearly all my trousers (two are double pleated, no flats). No, it's light grey, but oatmeal would be great as well.

I love that suit @Braddock ! It is similar to my wedding suit but yours is way better in style.

Thanks! Oh nooo, you changed your avatar. I loved the old one.
