NDW It may be the camera angle but the jacket looks a bit long.

I assume that's the Solito, and wow, that's a much better picture than the one you posted when you first bought it. I freaking love it.

You've got a way with pictures. Your style and the locations help considerably, but those photos are great.

How can you tell all of that from the pictures he posted?

The suit is too big for you, you need to size down. Constructive? Check.

Criticizing shoes that I couldn't see? Not really constructive, but I couldn't resist anyway...

I meant no offense, really. I apologize if that sounded harsh, but it's the truth. However, these are all my opinions and may or may not be correct. For reference, I prefer a tighter fit.


I dont neccesarily disagree re fit, though I think its a much a function of the cut of the suit than anything. The shoulders are more structured that I really prefer, but the shoulders end at my natural shoulder. If i sized down in this cut, it would look foolish.

Tie knot is not a four in hand. It's a half winsor. Sorry you don't like it.

I have been remiss about participating in these challenges but the lack of a good camera has made it difficult. These photos are actually from about two years ago (it is up to SpooPoker whether or not to include them) and are locked in WAYWRN Part 1 so I thought it was about time to repost them. It seemed serendipitous as the one picture already included the daffodils.

I would have loved to included this in the contest, Mr.C - but being that they are so old, I think it just would not have been fair to the field of people who planned a outfit for today/this week to be up against a fit from 2009. Looks great though.

No problem at all. That is quite fair. I appreciate what you are doing with the contests and wish I was able to participate more fully.

This woke me up. I wonder how the PC police are going to handle this one.

SC, tie and shirt make up for the pants, which don't look bad to me anyway. That is a real winner.
