Do not ask me about the fit, I cannot tell from a photo.

Oxbridge is the union of Oxford and Cambridge Universities, and they give you striped ties (also know as a colligate tie, as may wducation institutions also give striped ties) like the one you are wearing in that picture. In England, people think that anyone who wears a colligate tie is mad, and obsessed with their education background.
no I just like stripes and all stripe ties do not look like regimental tie because of sens of stripes and colors

It could be that, but also the bunching of the fabric could be a result of the suit being too tight somewhere else.

Ah yes, it is too tight there (where the arrows are) and that is why the fabric is bunching at the back, not because there is too much fabric at the back.

It is a very small problem on the dark suit, only on the grey it is too much.

no this is not too tight but too large on the front. each side of an open jacket shoud not touch one other? there should be a space when jacket is open

But from the back it looks like it is too tight because the fabric apears to bunch, however, it is not that (I am only going from what you tell me here, as you have the suit on your body, so you should know better) it is, as you said, too much fabric at the back.
