How does this suit fit?

[thewatcher101]

Suggestions and critiques are more then welcome.

I wish there was less crotch to the pants but they current sit at the floor, so they are at proper length.

I might also get more tailoring done to suppress the waist even more.

Overall it looks pretty good.

However, in some pics the jacket's sleeves look a little short, might be from elevating your hands. It also looks a bit 'baggy' from the shoulder down to the elbows, maybe if you straightened it out we can better tell how the sleeves' lengths are in regards to shirt cuff.

Shoulders look a tad big and sleeves may be a bit short. It's hard to tell since your shirt sleeves are too long though.

Button stance is also high, and never do the bottom button.

This is a suit from Reiss, am I correct?

- The jacket sleeve looks a bit short because the sleeves on his shirt is a little too long, as show in the last pic.

- There's a gap happening between the shirt collar and the jacket, get a shirt with a slightly short sleeve/broader "Neopolitan" collar (it'll also help not show the tie at the back of your head).

- And it may be my eyes only but the shoulders on the jacket don't look properly aligned with your own shoulder.

- Finally, never fasten that bottom jacket button.

Yeah i agree mostly. The suit's design is kinda odd to me, something with the shoulders just bothers me. Too big or slanted or something.

I think I might end up returning it here are some more shots of the suit.

The shirt sleeves are too long rest of my shirts are at the tailor right now. I'll get that one fixed too.

Here is the black version. I chose to shoot the grey one because it would show up better in pictures since black hides imperfections.

I never had slim fit suit that fit my arms correctly they are 13" resting. My body is somewhat disproportionate.






Black one

Those sleeves just are not working.

If your upper arms are disporportionally large to the rest of your frame you are going to have to make some choices here:

1.) Can the arms of this jacket be let out to accomodate your arms? Unfortunately you cannot tell in a lined suit very well how much extra fabric there is to let out - but sometimes you can feel the seam to tell.

2.) Try a less slim fitting suit and if the arms fit have the suit body taken in at the waist. (Most likely solution.)

3.) Have your suits made to measure. This doesn't have to be super expensive - but it does take some time and effort.

But you can't wear any of the ones you've shown us in the photos without somehow resolving the sleeve puckering/bunching issue. They just don't work - sorry

The shirt sleeves look too long, the coat sleeves too short. There is a general air of ill fitting about the coat anyway.
If and I quote the "trousers sit at the floor" then they are too long - they should not touch the floor in the slightest. Suggest you look at other posts to learn about 'break' etc. Photographs showing the trousers as a whole are preferable.

Left back pocket has no button and the is that an unusual pocket on the right of the trousers about three inches below the waist band? Is so it looks dreadful and will not enhance the trousers for little use. A fob pocket should be at the waistband on concealed at its top.

Return the thing and try again.

So 'beware the man with 3 legs', right?

I might also get more tailoring done to suppress the waist even more.

Seeing these photos, I feel that I have been stalked, put on my knees and am about to be sexually violated.

Thank.......learned a few things and returning these.

The trousers are a bit baggy in the seat. The coat is not a disaster, but has a few fit issues around the collar and upper sleeves.
Buttoning the bottom button is not always wrong, it's just a vague rule. Both Connery and Moore did it often in their Bond tenures, and that's good enough for me.

Just your average Sunday night, amirite?

I agree buttoning bottom is not wrong, especially when fitting for a suit and posing around here and there, if you are suave enough to pose that is.

OP, I think you need a new suit.

Some suits are meant to have both buttons done up, but in most cases, including this one, and especially when posing for fit pics, the bottom button should not be done up.
