Argh. All these suit pictures makes me wish TaT was made up to my size (46" chest).

Damn it.

swooc, that silhouette is perfect in my opinion. I'd call that cut pretty aggressive as is. I think it looks great! Nitpicks: - slightly too long sleeves - random bunching/rippling (which hopefully are just temporary)

Here is the TaT 1-button I wore to my school graduation. Excuse the poor picture but I took it for a WAYWT and I don't want to get dressed back up for fit pics

The sleeves are a little long (hence the weird fists holding my shirt sleeves), but hopefully I can get them tailored even though this is supposedly difficult since they are functional. Ordering from TaT was a great experience and I recommend them to all.

Damn, that fit looks epic from what I can see.

next order will definately ask for a more aggressive cut with slimmer lapels.

Aside from a couple minor niggles, that looks quite nice. Don't think you could go much tighter without pulling.

I wear suits even more infrequently than that. Didn't let that stop me.

Looking nice; sleeves need to be shortened a bit. And I think the color is more navy than charcoal; maybe due to camera effects?

I am losing weight at the moment and TaT will be the first thing I order once I hit my target.

btw, has anyone else noticed that the suit jackets looks more flared from behind than front?

Fortunately (though unfortunately in this case), my size is mostly from lean mass so unless I become manorexic, I won't be getting any smaller.
