Probably a nice tweed. Two inch cuffs, flat front, single rear pocket and an eight button fly.

Can you post a pic please?

Regardless statement shoes need to be the point so understate the suit but a lil flourish of the purple and yellow elsewhere - pocket square (sigh) for eg... or go full on pimp if you can carry it.
