Photos of Favorite Single Breasted Suit

I am currently looking through photos of single breasted suits on the internet to find some inspiration for a suit I am going to get made. Plus, if I find a photo with the right mix of fit, shoulders, etc. I could use it to help communicate to my tailor exactly what I am after. I have found some photos with great shoulders but the fit might not be what I am after. Or I found some with a fit I like a lot but then didn't like other aspects of the suit. Basically, looking for something for something with a soft shoulder and decent amount of waist suppression but not extreme.

So does anybody have photos they would like to share? Doesn't have to meet the criteria I set forth above just curious as to what people consider the best looking suits they have seen.

uh, took a while, but I've compiled a few random pics. Everything from natural, to padded, to roped, etc. Sort of a hodge podge but maybe you'll like something in there.

Thank you very much for posting all those photos. I found a great picture demonstrating the shoulder that I like.
