Hard to determine fit with that pose but I guess that may not have been your purpose.
Indeed the aim was purely narcissistic. However the fit is great.

Tailors Keep started working on the trousers yesterday, and sent over some pics:
Prepping the cloth:

Here’s an example of their house style trouser side seam, where it pitches forward at the waist to follow the line where angled pockets would be. I really like this detail; it’s as if the pocket isn’t even there.

...and a little handwork:

Trousers should be ready for a fitting next week, after which they’ll start the jacket.
Hmmm good question, I’ll be sure to ask.I'd be curious to hear how displacing that side seam affects the fit and drape, if at all. Does it only work for certain body types? Does the pattern have to be changed in other ways, besides the fact that the seam isn't there?
These look like the oatmeal flannel that NMWA did a few years back. I will look into this for trousers.Tailors Keep started working on the trousers yesterday, and sent over some pics:

I have that fabric made up into pants years ago by, of all places, Tailors’ Keep. @gdl203 might have a bit left but probably not much.These look like the oatmeal flannel that NMWA did a few years back. I will look into this for trousers.

Personal finances be damned I ordered a brown leno jacket and khaki pants from Hemrajani, too.
Gotcha. It’s a beautiful fabric, a very beefy 500g linen. I especially like the wavy twill. Next time I’m in NYC I’ll bring it & give you a holler.Me and flannel trousers don't mesh well together, but I can get behind the linen you're making up.
Speaking of NYC, when's the I Sarti Italiani trunk show? ?Gotcha. It’s a beautiful fabric, a very beefy 500g linen. I especially like the wavy twill. Next time I’m in NYC I’ll bring it & give you a holler.
Well he is retired! But someone will be here in August I think they said.Is Joe doing visits/fittings in Atlanta? Didn't think he was still making the rounds.
Man, I’m tellin ya. Wish he could come sooner but it’s easier for me to go there than him to come here at the moment. Italy (and most of the EU) is still blocked from entering.Speaking of NYC, when's the I Sarti Italiani trunk show? ?
