Actually had a spare couple minutes to grab some pictures today. No tie but closer here than the casually thread I figured. Testing out a new button down collar from my shirt maker for more casual outfits when my spread collar I have on everything else won’t quite do.

I like when a notch lapel starts looking a bit like a peak without being too flashy. What size shoulders and lapel is this if I may ask. Not sure if my frame can handle a 4 inch with a 18-18.5 shoulder jacket.

‘Excellent looK, as always. What’s your normal dress code and under what circumstances are you able to dress down a bit? I’ve always been immensely jealous of you guys that get to wear suits and ties to work everyday….of course anyone can do it, but I am referring to those whose environment dictate a suit. In any event, Bravo @Jmr928!

These trousers man - they’re getting worse.
The camera angle may not be helping you here but the full length shot makes it look like you’re wearing tights.
Until you address this issue it’s irrelevant how well or poorly the top half comes together in any outfit.

Nothing peak about them. Just a wide notch with a slightly lower gorge than my standard and lapels cut with a straight edge rather than belly.

I’m not sure on size. I can ask my tailor but it’s 1am in Naples currently. He likes me but I’m not sure enough to wake up at 1 to reply to me. Ballpark 11.5-12cm lapels on this one if I had to guess based on my standard jackets having more restrained 10cm lapels.

Thank you sir. Appreciate it. I set the office dress code but dress down based on who I have meetings with on any given day. Today was a short day and meeting with a long-standing client I’ve got a good relationship with who recently sold his business and now wears quarter zips pretty much exclusively so a suit would have been overkill.
