So I've gone and flipped through 'Dressing the Man', searched and read some of the threads, but I really can't figure out exactly what roping is and what it looks like. I understand it relates to Saville Row cuts of jackets, but can someone
(a) post some comparison pics;
(b) explain what it is, and what differentiates it from other shoulder structure;
(c) explain what kind of body it might look best on (or if not, what visual effect it has);
(d) point me to the thread that might answer this if it's already been illustrated/discussed.
I'm contemplating my next MTM suit, and I'd like to figure out more precisely what kind of shoulder structure I might prefer, and would also just like to know my options.
Thanks.
