HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

[Count de Monet]

With that aperture setting aren't you gaining depth of field issues...?

Well, like everything in photography, there are tradeoffs. Shooting with a small "f" number, i.e. a wider aperture, it is easier to stop action or work in lower light since you are taking in so much light but depth of field diminishes so focusing becomes more critical. That's not all bad, though, since having everything other than the subject slightly out of focus is a nice effect.

But, hey, just because shooting "wide open" maximizes light, it doesn't mean you have to do so if you have plenty of light at other, smaller apertures. Stopping down to f4 or 5.6 gives you greater depth of field. But having the ability to open up past the limits of many moderately priced zooms can be a life saver in lower light situations.

Great look!
Could I know the width of your lapels btw? I am around the same build and it looks really good on you.

Thank you very much for taking the time to take the shot!! 

The fanny thing is that i was thinking to ask if its a Pal Zileri ,judging from the lapel design ! I was in their boutique in Rome last week when i was on vacation and i was ready to buy one of their Double B Blazers (pity they didnt have my size 56/58)

Some ''inside" info on the label!( some things i knew ,some are from my Tailor ) :

The code for the fabric/cloth is 83553 (i doubt they are going to give me the manufacturer and maybe is a loro piana /V. Barberis Canonico for Pal Zileri (as my Tailor said)) 
Drop 7 is the code for the design of the pattern (Statura R for visual as you look the suit from the side (i am not sure about that))
Taglia 50 obviously is for the size
Wool 100 is that is 100% wool
and lining is 100% cupro
The other codes are Pal Zileri company codes 

Pal Zileri mostly use lanificio cerruti fabrics. I have 2 PZ suits both are Cerruti fabric. If you are desperate then try contacting them.

Thanks! This lapel is 8.5cm, but usually my lapels are rather 9.5-10cm.

Thank you for the info!!

i checked the fabric books of Cerruti but as we say here i made a hole in the water(nothing) !

I let my tailor to contact them and they said that the fabric is made exclusively for them and if we want they can see if they have some in stock or a suit!(really professional )

i have found a quit similar fabric from loro piana with a little more purplish pinstripe so maybe i ll stick to that!

Great look. Gorgeous tie.

Not a fan of how the square is folded and I think the shirt collar could be crisper, but that's really nice @Amar ezzahi
