I am digging the plaid sport coat fit. Killer fabric on that one!

Three piece please.

Hola!

Okay, fine, this was yesterday.

I haven't worn this @Sam Hober grenadine tie in forever. It's a substantial tie. I should wear it more often. It's just the thing with this shirt. Which also hasn't seen the light of day in forever.

I don't get the joke but I have never been one to refrain from food, so biscuit it is....

Could you please tell us about the fabric this beautiful suit is made from?

It's a London Lounge fabric that Alden calls "Mare". This is the Sand color. It's intended to be a lightweight summer fabric with a softer hand than a typical high-twist wool. It is a lightweight wool and it does manage to drape quite well. It does have a tendency to wrinkle a bit more than I'd like, but I guess that's the trade-off you have to make.

I didn't take it to Pitti, even though I did not expect Florence to be as hot as it was. I think it might be most suitable for a Northern European summer, with temperature ranges from 20º-25ºC/68º-78ºF or so. It gets a little warm as you get into the 80s Fahrenheit. Florence during Pitti was in the high 90sF.

Thank you for your kind words.

Fast-food chicken meals are frequently referred to by the number of pieces of chicken included. A biscuit is a typical side. So concludes today's Explaining The Joak Which Wasn't That Funny Anyway.

Yeah I know, the linen shirt should have longer points. It doesn't.
