Double Breasted Style.

[Bespoke DJP]

I find this example odd. Probably because of the patterns. I feel like the 2x1 suits plains And more formal cloths better

Well, perhaps!

I think this is / was a signature garment of this Sartoria and I somehow like it; truth is that I like the lapels of the image posted by @Terrence O'Connor more.

Best,

Your algorithm is amazing. Watched a couple interviews yesterday with actors who worked with Redd Foxx and today you post him donning DB’s!

I watched a documentary on the Apollo Theatre and caught Redd Foxx wearing a nice pair of sunglasses so I did some digging....

Tried on this jacket of someone's at a sartoria yesterday.
Beautiful navy blue and great stripe width IMO, but the cloth quality was questionable.

I had heard good things about this Explorer bunch from Standeven, so I was surprised to see the cloth puckering so apparently after a few wear. Apparently it reacts badly to drastic changes between hot-and-cold, thus not being friendly to ironing and pressing when making the garment.

Great pic but also a nice historiographic illustration, if you know the context of the show, of what was considered contemporary and what was seen as passé at that time.
