Not sure how I like the fit. Trying to go more "classic" than suppressed and I'm not sure if I'm just not used to a fuller cut or if its genuinely fucked up.

also, sorry about the lighting, was raining slightly when I took this, so had to use covered porch.


Sorry to say, young Liam, but it's not a "classic" fit, it's merely a bit too big for you. It seems to hanging off your shoulders in a way that is causing the quarters to close too much down below, as far as I can tell. Enjoy the slenderness of your youth, and get something that fits you better.

Both the design and fit of this jacket unfortunately speak volumes about his / her skills. There are better alternatives available in NY.

Id switch out the jacket for a darker blue, and change the PS to a solid white. To my eye the blue of the jacket clashes with the shirt....I could be wrong, just my humble opinioin.

Welcome! my what big eyes you have! haha
