These are the folks that had made the shortlist but were not finalists for Keng Wang's grey contest. Finalists are in another thread.

More detailed shot.



The coat is RLPL with both charcoal and medium gray. Shirt is custom with gray stripes. The pocket square is unknown and a gray Glen check. The tie is Nicky with splashes of gray in the paisley. This tie is impossible for me to get a decent knot with. Pants are a light gray Borrelli.

I love Baron's pic and would have voted for it if it made the finalists. Something about the photo: the casual pose with man's best friend, the way the light reflects off the suit showing interesting shadows and textures of the fabric. I guess I'm just way more of a fan of the "suit how you might see it being worn" pictures than a lot of the straight-on poses that grace the WAYWN thread...

There are 3 people here I would of voted over any of the finalists, notably Baron (although I usually hate peak lapels).

I would have gone Merckx and A Harris in the finals, with A Harris getting the gong.
