Light to medium grey and tan/khaki would be best in my opinion.

Reviving a dormant thread...

I picked up this at the Paul Stuart sale. 3.5 yards of lambswool/angora. It feels a little like the Loro Piana Coarsehair material--light, soft, with a little scratchiness to it. I think it could make a great spring/fall coat. But I might have enough for a suit. Too loud?

No.

Not too loud. But probably too short. Try for the jacket, though.

Exclusive indeed

The right one is what I will be getting made up for fall. I like yours and the one on the left but it didn't look too nice with my skin tone.

I adore plaids. I saw this picture of the Duke of Windsor's closet, and really liked some of the pieces: I'd love to say my collection was the same. Anyway, I'll post some offerings. They're not too loud, but I like them regardless. I unfortunately can't find my other plaid waistcoat, because I love them both. They look great with a pin or chalk-stripe suit (an unusual affectation, but it adds a remarkable amount of character to an outfit). That's it for plaid. (Awaits pointless comments about clothes hangers).

Any pictures of the ensemble? My interest is piqued.
