I'm sure a lot of people wont like this, but I did it anyway.

I like it. Contrasting Tie is nice.

This jacket is waay to tight. I really want to start over my coat collection now that I have concluded that excessively close fitting = not good...

Disclaimer: Crotch is doing weird things because these pants have double forward pleats and the extra material bunches up in this pose. I'm not smuggling potatoes.

It's continued to be cold in NYC. On a brighter note, I've just gotten today's suit back from my alterations tailor for a little minor tweaking - 1/2 inch longer on the trousers and sleeves. I am well-pleased with the results.

Could be worse? His first effort is better than most have been able to muster after months or years in this thread.

+1, this was quite good.

He should have steam ironed the turnups. The creases from where th eold turn up was are still visible. I can see it reflected in those highly polished shoes

Thanks. I didn't know if it would work, but I think I like it.

Crust, I don't comment often on fits, but do follow and appreciate. This one is you, is one of my favorites, the cut of the suit is nice and seems to fit you great! I especially notice the difference in the sleeve and trouser tapper.

Good use of colour. Do I correctly detect a self check in the suit fabric, very subtle but adds great interest.

Yes, you are correct! Thank you very much!

Great as usual, but this combo jumps of the page, it's awesome!

It's a bit cold in here, temperature is around 9°C, so for us it's very cold. So no tie today, no jacket, I opted for a coat.

^^ that is a freaking cool ass coat ^^

How's the Milano fit around the lower waist (at mid-pocket height)?  Do you think they would take a stomach? I like how they taper. 

well, i have 2 pairs. before i explain further please everyone do not laugh at my fatness.

i too have a stomach, and "athletic" thighs. i got one pair in a size 38, that is my normal pants size, which i took out a tiny tiny bit, and i got another pair in dark gray in a size 40, that i had to take in at the waist about an inch and a half.

they both now fit the same in the waist, and although maybe the 38 technically fits me better, and looks great in pics, they really dont feel that awesome on my fat thighs and crotch area. the 40s however, look almost exactly the same, maybe dont look quite as nice in pics as the 38s, but feel so much better and are really really comfy. i would say if you are a little bigger in the gut/thighs, you are better off sizing up and then having a tailor take them in, and even maybe trim the width a tad if you want. just my experience.
