As someone who has some funky proportions of his own, I can empathize with moo. It's tough to find clothes that fit well. There are plenty of things out there that fit in the literal sense, but the selection for clothes that don't make you look bigger than you are is limited when you have odd proportions.

The W+H doesn't look good on anyone. In any color. Never. It's one of those SF groupthink phenoms of yesteryear.

Grey hoodies make me think of jogging clothes and they squish button up shirts at the collar so they look all weird. Would look better with a t-shirt I believe.

There have been some fits in which it's looked good. It's also incredibly soft so maybe not flattering but it is comfortable. But he doesn't fit in his somehow it looks off. They run really slim too so prob best to leave them alone unless you got the build for it. They won't work with that shirt he has tho

It's iridescent

Well, more or less, but that's rather a good showing for a dinner jacket over 41 years old

Thank you all; kind as ever

On the footwear: opera pumps usually cause a crisis of masculinity amongst observers, but the truth is that they really do disappear into the rest of a black or white tie outfit. And ladies adore them, usually

I wear nothing but shirts and trousers to work; there's only so many times I can make genuinely interesting ensembles of them, especially when I need to take a number of shirts in and have only 4 or so decent warm weather trouser pairs

i like the wings + horns hoodies. But not over an OCBD. over a t-shirt and slim jeans with some sneakers it's a solid casual fit.

we all know what the problem is and until that's fixed nothing is gonna look good. sorry but it's true.

belt is horrible. suit jacket (especially pinstripe) shouldn't really be separated, especially not to be worn with jeans. i don't like that little flower thing. pocket square and tie looks so off when worn with the jeans. you could've at least worn a knit tie.

man the jeans here is just so weird. If you wanna wear a jacket with jeans, make sure it's a sportcoat not a suit jacket. it shouldn't really be pinstripe either unless other things make it more casual. casual tie with jeans is hard to do. dunno what shoes you're wearing.

sorry for the derail, but can somebody explain the difference between these two things to me? I would venture into MC for an answer, but who the hell wants to venture into MC.

Hm, not a 'fan' of Moo's look but he's looking far thinner than I remember. Out of the obese bracket for sure, well maybe. Good work.
