Another gift. This time, not from my wife.

It is another tailor, hence the gift part. He didn't nail the look. Still, the fabric is lovely and it should see some use.
They’re on the wild side, but YOLO!

I like the jacket and pant combo, but I don't think the tie and square are very harmonious together. I'd probably do one or the other here. I'm thinking keep the square and maybe a brown tie.

I did actually consider a rust-colored solid tie with the jacket, but liked the light blue tie better. I have pocket squares closer in color to the tie itself, but thought that would be too matchy-matchy, so, I came up with what you saw. Nothing ventured, nothing gained . . .

Suit: Suit Supply
Shirt: Proper Cloth (MTO)
Tie: Drakes
Loafers: Crockett Jones
Socks: Nordstrom Brand
Pocket Square: Battisti Napoli
Suit looks fabulous and fits perfectly, but I'll continue my lament about your choice of cluttered backgrounds. The placement of the bush in the first picture gives the impression of a peacock.
