I'm thinking it might be this.

I think Conan had most of his done by Martin Greenfield? Judging from Fallon's pants, I don't think that's the case for him though. Greenfield would not let that fly.

i actually think jimmy kimmel dresses pretty well. His suits have a very soft neapolitan shoulder. I wouldn't doubt it if they were Kiton.

I would put money on this being Tom Ford. I tried on a suit very similar to this a few months ago at NM-- that and the five buttons, the lapel buttonhole, shape of the shoulders, etc. look like it to me. looks like no belt loops either, similar to the TF James Bond suits.

I'm embarassed to admit I kinda like the way TF looked on me when I tried on the suit jacket.

I don't think you should be. the TF cut can look really good on the right body type. The shoulder and large ticket pocket flap lead me to believe it's TF. And give the Fallon some time! The Slow Jamming the News bit was funny

Yes, but is there a better gig for a working musician? CONSTANT steady paycheck, MAJOR mainstream exposure. They will have work until retirement if they want it without having to hustle for any future gigs. And I cant think of a harder working, better deserving band than The Roots.

That's why I'm torn. It's amazing exposure for them. However, there's a part of me that wants ?uestlove to be producing. Maybe even calling D'Angelo up...

I'm sure they still have plenty of time for producing, as well as backups for touring, just like Max Weinburg.

They also pay homage to the east coast crew and sound where the show is filmed.

Ironically I've been listening to all the old D'Angelo live stuff lately.

Of all the current late night talk show hosts, I still think Letterman is the most stylish. However mediocre Fallon is, he is not nearly as badly dressed as Conan.

It's not just the fit; it's his style.

I agree. To me, it's not consistent...one day he'll wear a 2B suit that fits him well, the next he'll wear a 3B monstrosity with a gorge that starts at his collar bone.

Everyone's got to cut Fallon some slack. He is obviously new to this show business, you can see him nervous all of the time. It all comes from the expectations of "replacing" Conan, but he has to find his own voice. Right now, he's just following the ideas the producers give and still doesn't know his boundaries.

The host makes 75% of the show, but he doesn't know himself enough yet. Give him a few years- he's got to grow.

Carmen Diaz was hot in the black pantsuit and she had some moves when she was in the dance off with Fallon. How come she ain;'t married?
