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

[CaptainTohm]

@Claghorn is that also a KW Great Wave square I see? I love that square, one of my most versatile ones, for sure.

@upr_crust Congrats again! You and your husband look very elegant and, even more importantly, happy.

@Adolesco I love everything about this fit! I just ordered a brown jacket, and this makes me very excited for its arrival.

Finally fall; bad for light, good for tweed.

















@upr_crust : Good looking men.

Looks damn good, but may I suggest you have the pants taken in a bit around the thighs? They look (to me) far roomier than they need to be, and it is visually adding heft to your thighs.

Thanks! I couldn't agree more about the trousers.

The weekend's celebrations are now over, and it's back to work for me. Keeping it simple today.

Suit - BBGF Regent
Shirt - BB
Tie - Hermes
Cufflinks - Designs by CC (a custom jeweler in Portland ME - a wedding present from my cousin)
Shoes - Septieme Largeur, Paris

A few shots from the wedding:

Adorable photos, and I really like that Hermes.

@Roy Al that's among my all-time favorites from you, though I feel your pain on the lighting challenges.

I echo this. Koala's fits, for whatever reason, seem to make him appear bulkier in the middle than his neck would seem to indicate would be an accurate portrayal...

Probably be cause I am bulkier around the middle. I'm not huge. I'm about 5'11, 185, but my hips are wide in structure, so all my weight tends to gravitate to my waist. So, I'm a 40R chest, but a 38 Waist. makes it hard as hell to find suits that fit. Have to go MTM or bespoke (out of my price range ATM). But slimming the legs on those trousers, particularly in the thigh would go a long way toward creating the illusion of a slimmer waist. This pair of pants just missed the trip to the tailor.

It was raining this morning, and I didn't want to get wet. Had to do the pics inside. Me not like, but better than nothing.

Agreed--and I've certainly been in that position! Glad to see the fit regardless of lighting.

I like big lapels, but not those. Those things look like wings. Does it hide your breast pocket? Does that jacket even have a breast pocket?
