Ricky, went to a wedding last week and took some pictures. This suit and shirt are your creations! Of course you must recognize, since I own very few pieces of clothing not made by you. Looks good, huh?

This summer suit is a silk/linen blend, btw. The tie is from Jim Thomson in Thailand, it's a little too narrow, but my gf likes the colour and little elephants.

Nice suit. I have been looking for a summer suit, and I think that captures what I have been looking for. How does the fabric hold up against wrinkles, etc?

do you have some, like ummm crescent/curve shaped pocket flaps there or is it just the angle of the photo?

Fabric holds up very well against wrinkles. It's super humid in Shanghai/Hong Kong in the summer, but that suit is fine, doesn't turn baggy at all.

Yep, two buttons undown on the watch wrist, one undone on the right. That's how I've always worn it. Haha.... The pocket flaps are slanted upwards.

SINGLE BREASTED PEAK LAPEL. Say no more.

I notice you took more pictures of your girlfriend than yourself. Not that I'm complaining, she is simply gorgeous.
