Yes!

A splendid take on the DB configuration, although the gentleman in the 2nd photo should have buttoned the middle button AND taken his hands off the pockets; not only is he distorting the fluidity of the garment, but more to that, he is destroying the meticulously-tailored pockets!


Best,

Dimitris

Totally agreed, it's clearly a classic 6x2, and one should fasten the middle button, not to mention not to put the hands inside the pockets.

Great style nonetheless.

Well that is Ciffonelli for you. They like to make some very strange creations but their normal stuff is great if not super-expensive

Don't get me wrong, I usually like their stuff, and also think that Lorenzo Cifonelli has great style, even though pretty quirky.

This is also somewhat odd, but looks way better in my eyes.

Another bad example of Double Breasted jacket, where the buttons are too close, here even more accentuated by the very distant non functioning upper buttons.
