Yay! That subtle belly in those lapels is something else. Wear them well!

+1 It's like a subtle confetti, fit for parties. Very nice looking fabric.

Beautiful jackets, B. Great choice of fabrics.

the number on the left.

 

[courty]

They look terrific. Do you recall the cloth numbers?

 

[Baron]

Wow, love that olive donegal.

 

[Parker]

Neat stuff, B! Love the swelled edges.

Makes me want to put an order for something similar...
