Critique my MyTailor suit fit

[atomicranch]

So I got my first suit from Hemranjani/MyTailor today. I chose Holland & Sherry Snowy River charcoal. I'm very pleased with the fabric and, while I don't have much experience with higher-end suits, the construction seems solid.

I'd like to get some feedback on the fit. MyTailor will be back in my area over the next few days, so I can take the suit in for adjustments.

I requested a slim-fit, with a higher button stance than their normal fare.

Note I put the suit on right out of the shipping box - it needs to be pressed.

So, what do y'all think? Overall silhouette? Sleeve length? Trouser break?

why did you ask for a higher button stance? it looks normal for a 2btn suit. did you mean higher lapels/gorge?

it's hard to tell because of all the creases from the box but from the back it looks like the waist is a bit tight. the inseam of your trousers could also be taken up an inch. i would also take the sleeves up about 0.25-0.5" to show some cuff.

mytailor suits are often cut with a low stance. the OP did well on that score. agree on the sleeve and pants length, and I'd probably tighten the space between the shoulders. the waist is fine, IMO.

I was thinking the same on the sleeves and trouser length

overall very good.
the balance is a bit off. you have sway posture. the jacket is falling away from your neck a bit.
Needs to raise and shorten the collar.
Should do the trick
Sleeves and pants are a bit long.
let out the waist just a tiny bit. a little too much suppresion.

Really needs to be cleaned first to know for sure.

atomicranch, couldn't help notice your speakers! Dynaudio Contour S 3.4, right? I bet they sound wonderful ...

Fixed. We don't clean suits, especially fused ones just out of the box.

Yup, they're Dynaudio 3.4s. I'm running them with a Simaudio amp, Sonic Frontiers preamp and Krell SACD player. It's the first time I've been totally satisfied with my system for a while.

Thanks for the input, everyone. Pretty much confirmed what I was thinking, but it's good to have some confirmation.

Your suit appeals more ,to me, than the piece of abstract art on the wall.

Didn't know my apartment was going to be a discussion. I guess I should have cleaned up first.

I am saving money for Confidence C4 with Ayres amp.

Nicely done!
