Cheers, I was wanting to see how it rolls with the bottom button buttoned only as seen here

Not the most flattering picture, but I don’t like the button formation with just the bottom buttoned.

Well in the pic @BlairW posted, the jacket is cut 6 on 1. In the above case, the jacket is 6 on 2. So it will never look right when only buttoning the bottom button.

You're right, I just wondered if the same effect could be reproduced with a 6x2, but maybe not..

Yeah. It really isn’t cut in a way that is conductive to the style you’re wanting. The anchor button on the inside is what makes the awkward roll/lump near the bottom of the jacket.

so im a 40L in SS and really interested in this linen suit but it doesnt come in L, just 40.


is it worth getting and having them alter the sleevs to lengthen or should i pass?

Probably not. If you're a 40L, there just may not be enough fabric to lengthen the sleeves (if it's even feasible). SS jacket sleeves are really short.

Alright, I finally went down and picked up a Lazio S110. I know the pictures and the lighting are awful, but could anyone comment on the fit of this suit? I need to know if it's worth keeping, and/or if I would need any major tailoring done. I was hoping for a more conservative style for law firm interviews. Thanks!

At a quick glance I'd say you need to go down a size. It's usually the opposite case with suitsupply haha.
