Hi Yall,

Could you please help me assess this Tuxedo's jacket length? Seems similar to James Bond's Skyfall. A bit too short or okay?

I tried to wear a contrasting pants. The red lines mark the bottom hem.

Thanks.

I like the lapels.

Looks like fit ain't good. More photos for assessment.

I guess my question now becomes ... how passable is the fit?

Someone did not grow up in the 70's.

i have seen worse.
again.
rtw or MTM

needs some work in the back, but not a big deal.
sleeves a re slightly different.
and your left hip is a bit high, throwing off the left lower front.

if you are looking for something super modern and stylish, that will look odd in two years, stay with it.

it only needs a little work if you don't mind the shorter length
