One could probably just link to Mr. Cordeaux's IG feed altogether. I enjoy almost everything that he posts.

The guy has undoubtedly great style.

I will never understand this silly need to casualize classic menswear, as, like in this case, wearing a tailored jacket over a tee-shirt or even naked skin.
The world is moving towards more casual and people are trying to fit into the trend. I suppose it's a psychological need to not be left behind and belong but still bring along the aesthetics of tailoring.

That's my psycho-babble for the day.

It's a stupid and juvenile attempt to casualise a suit that costs more than some people monthly salary. Edward Sexton, the most structured of the London tailors , but in a cool , like casual style, you dig? Pathetic

Suit so expensive he couldn't afford a proper shirt to go with it... :p

I originally thought it was a three piece suit with no shirt, but on closer look I think it may be a nehru collar shirt in the same shade as the suit.

You might be right, but, although better than a tee-shirt, it doesn't suit too.

I posted this because I find the silhouette interesting.

I personally wouldn't style it in this manner - to each their own.

Here is the link to the suit on Edward Sexton's site.
The style is great...I love Edward Sexton as I'm a lover of a more structured tyle as Neapolitan tailoring doesn't really tickle my fancy. But the styling of it is absolutely the pits as we say here in London.
