I do. I was wondering if anyone noticed the lapel pin in picture I posted...
First point: dope... how is the fit? especially the shoulder?
Second point: Of course, the pin was the first thing I noticed... great detail on that particular suit. How is the pin in person... is the quality anything special?

The fit is much slimmer than last season and also than the runway model look. The shoulders land perfectly well, don’t see any issue on, although the padding looks more in all Celine suit jackets so far I noticed.
Funny on the pin is that is not the Celine’s one I put, it is the suggestion from Louis Louis at Amazon, made in USA version. Size is slightly smaller than Celine’s but all details and materials are the same... Really don’t see any point to spend 30x money on Celine’s one... ?.
And if you are interested on the fit for the vest and flared trousers. I regarded myself is true 48, both items are quite slim in the cut when comparing to the jacket. Although the descriptions are both classic fit. My chest could be slightly bigger than regular 48, so ended up to tailored a bit at buttons of the vest to accommodate, hope the adjustment would work out well.
If you love to pick one of these three pieces, I strongly suggest the trousers, much better look than the black jeans I have. And you would not be able to find a lot of flared suit trousers alternative, when compared to jeans.

Can you hook us up with waist measurements on the trousers, my man?

Did you see that the amazon flower is also available in black or white?
Schmalberg is doing these since 1916, isn't that nice?

A London SA told me last week that the Celine one is very expensive because of the time taken to make one. You're free to believe it (or not).

Regarding the model runway look vs real life fitting, i've been told several times that models often wear +1 size to get that seventies look. And of course they are extra thin.

Yes, the quality is good, so I ordered another white rose one! All hand made from NY! Thanks for the recommendation.
I would say the quality is much better than SLP, you can see from the internal structure and seams. And most importantly, the feel when you put on them. However, I still think shirts are overly priced...
Yes, models did put on a bigger jackets, same as in 2019 FW...

Has anyone ordered Celine or other items from 24 sevres?

I believe it’s an official app from LVMH group which contains Celine as we all know. The reason I ask is I could save approximately 100 dollars versus ordering directly through Celine for the same items and perhaps even more after taxes are included

The flared pants would still require tailoring but I feel even with paying for tailoring I’d come out ahead versus doing that at my closest Celine store
