The suit is gorgeous and shows up better in person. It's charcoal with copper/brown and light gray multi stripe. If you need any clarification PM me. The suit is on sale at BB website now for $700 I'm asking $325. Let me know if the price is fair. I know it's not the deal of a century but the suit is new and was purchased at a much higher price tag. I know these suits get mixed reviews but I love them for what they're worth. They're a moderate priced fashion(ish) suits that are young but can go between work and recreation pretty well (depending on what one does for a living). For those that generally have to have a suit taken in A LOT (off the peg) the new BBs provide relief considering the slim silhouette. I'm a fan... I'd like to keep this one but I could use the money. Shoulders-18" Length (bottom of collar to hem)-30.5" Arms (shoulder to hem)-25" Chest-41.5" Waist-34"

I'd say somewhere in between. If you want exact measurements tell me where you'd like me to measure and I'll give you the outcome (ie. measured circumfrance of jacket 2-3 inches above pockets).

How about at the top button (2 btn) or middle button (if this is 3btn)?

The suit is 2btn... and I was right in my approximation. When I measure I got something in between 39 and 40: ~39.5".

as an impartial observer, i just wanted to say I picked up an 1818 fitz at the BB half yearly back in June and I love it. I asked for more waist suppression and they certainly tailored it to be more fitted than otr. I bet any one who buys this can take it to BB or their fav. tailor and get this trim fitting suit even more trim fitting. By the way, I love the pants in the fitz. I wish they would offer odd trousers in this cut.
