Tie too similar in colour/tone to waistcoat/jacket. Beautiful PS choice, though.
Shen, you keep doing what you're doing. It's all good!

Disagree. I think its very successful low constrast combo.
Paging @gdl203 !
If the tie used the orange in it more predominantly, it would work tonnes better, IMO, as it would give a playful twist to a more-somber suit. The very-similar grey in the tie reminds me of those sick maniacs who wear the same colour tie as their shirt as their suit. Aside from that, it's a great-looking suit, and, like I said, the PS is a perfect choice--which is quite surprising, really, as most people get it wrong in this thread.
Well, most people get pocket squares wrong, as they often pick the wrong material for the suit, or use colours that are far too bright, to go with an otherwise muted look. Neon silk is never, ever a good choice for a PS, IMO, but you seem them quite a lot in here. To each their own but it's what's behind it which is important to me (material matching and colour theory).
The reason I think his PS is a perfect choice is because purple is by far the best colour to match to that suit, when used in small doses i.e. with a PS (it may not work as well, when used for the tie). The brown in the PS goes with the grey, too. The material is one of a number of choices, but is not the wrong material. It complements the weight of the suit material, IMO.
