Double Breasted Style.

Edward Sexton made suits for people like David Bowie and Mick Jagger. His whole thing was to provide an alternative to the stuffy rigidness of traditional saville row tailors.

Shhh...let the boomers vent...

This guy gets it. If anything, Sexton himself would most likely disagree with all the naysayers here.

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

With all the due respect, elegance ought to be context-sensitive and being able to defuse the formality of an otherwise ultra-formal outfit by sprinkling in some streetwear or gorpcore elements might be the difference between blending in or sticking out like a sore thumb in a sea of athleisure, ill fitting fast fashion knockoffs and polos'n chinos.

I mean, that's the whole shtick of super popular CM brands such as Drake's, so it's not like we're reinventing the wheel either.

Silk t-shirts and knit tops underneath a DB that fits generously are also a nice callback to the 80's.

I would be curious for style feedback on my most recent DB (tried a new tailor). I think it actually fits well, but keeps feeling off to me because the wrap is narrower than that of my other DB suits, but I can't tell what it looks like from an outside perspective. (I don't want to ask to change something that's really a matter of house style, if that makes sense.)
