dude you have a really odd body type. it sounds like most OTR clothing won't fit you so well. either get some MTM stuff or you should get to know your local tailor.

^The face with the maggots really grossed me out dude. That was completely unneccessary (the maggot face). Maybe try editing that part out, okay?

For the record, when I said "special" I was being ironic. I didn't create this thread out of a sense of entitlement, I just thought that this was kind of a strange case. I've been met largely with sarcasm and ridicule, so thanks for that.

Very sorry to have bothered everyone. I'll go somewhere else I guess. Thanks to the few of you who actually posted something a little helpful.

^ stop being such a *****. You've got freakish proportions, fine. You can achieve some striking looks once you've figured out how, so get to it. Here's a hint: if, because of your proportions, you can't find clothes that fit slim like most people here wear them, go in a different direction!! captain obvious signing off. \\thread

I was here asking for advice. I've been lurking for a while now, and it seems like there are a lot of knowledgable people here.

Am I really being a *****? I'm sorry if it seems that way, I'm just sort of taken aback at the hostility I'm getting here. I'm truly interested in making an effort to improve my wardrobe.

Freakish? Um, okay, well thanks for that.

made to measure is your best bet; check some threads, the pinned ones, it isn't as expensive as you think
