Looking for opinions on this size 48 Formosa. I'm unsure about the length among other things, and it's a lot of money to drop on a suit if the fit isn't great. For reference I am a little under 5'8" but have a long torso and a muscular frame with a large drop.

The length is great. What are your other concerns?

I think you could length the sleeves a touch and I want to know if you can get the sleeves to fall cleanly - maybe it's just the pose.

I would definitely advise sizing the jacket up for extra length in sleeve & body and then tailoring to adjust fit.

Yes. I think the shoulders could also use some extension which may take care of that little divot issue.
