Here's another shot. The sleeves are the appropriate length when I'm not leaning up against crap. The fit of the suit is fine when I'm standing normally.

I do, however, agree that the collar was too pointy for that look, and I've since switched to a more spread collar. Of all the critiques that was the only non-cheap shot. Hey, at least there was one, right?


So give us a shot that properly shows the fit.

Nice coat and cap!!!!


I very much regret that never was the student of this university. I even never was on the Michigan. I will tell to you in secret that I never was in the USA. But I am ready to assist your team. If only you explain me game rules in the American football and tell to me where I should run....

Southern California did nothing to kick the british out. Thus keep your comments to yourself.

Yes. Too large in shoulders, too boxy, too long in sleeves.

Your comment that the collar is too pointed is the least of your worries, regardless of pose. Armscyes too low. Looks to me that the jacket and pants are too large.


^This.

Your comment that you're a lawyer, not a dandy? From the looks of it, you're no dandy. And probably not a good lawyer either. And that's not a cheapshot. Regardless of pose. And the shoes look like you live in Southern California.
Well, just because one's a lawyer doesn't exclude dandification. I hope that my dandification, sartorially speaking, continues after I'm admitted to the bar. Which includes the continued wearing of braces.

And they do look like SoCal shoes.

Instead of getting angry, just relax and read up. You'll learn a bit about fit, color and patter matching, and quality. It's worth it.

Looks like you take all your advice from women. And the only time they found the sense to not insult you was at funerals. <--- probably not a cheapshot.
Don't ever take men's clothing advice from women. It almost always ends poorly.

Dandyism and lawyertude are definitely not mutually exclusive.
