Thank you both. The jacket was designed to be buttoned as a two-piece but not as a three-piece. The new suits all close like this one example below. Do you approve?

On the subject of the tie's texture on yesterday's ensemble, for once I must strongly disagree. IMHO, grenadines are a perfect fit for that type of suit. It is also a navy grenadine with purple dots, which is a perfect match for the colors of the suit, but that does not show on the picture, of course.

I love the lapels on your suits, would enjoy seeing how your suits look buttoned up.
Adding to the choir. The suit looks awesome! To be honest, I like the colors, but I think the texture of the tie isn't the best with the suit. I think a smooth silk or a wool tie would have looked better.

A wholehearted yes from me, I love the X shaped silhouette with the bold lapels. I normally don't like ticket pockets on suits, but it somehow works on your frame.

Very nice. Am sure it was unintentional, but the pocket square's shape is vaguely reminiscent of the Playboy bunny icon.

I think you just started a trend.
