One last Pic from the night. The bow-tie is unraveling from dancing. I promise I will try and buy a new suit before I post this one again.

I love this shirt. I think it would look particularly great with that same navy tie and a cream colored linen suit come Spring.

I agree, hence the reason that it's not been donated to a charity shop as of yet.

Now, I just need a cream colored linen suit . . . .

I like the natural light much better. See if your camera has a mode for indoor lighting, or tungsten lighting. It will remove some of the amber glow that indoor bulbs create.

Quick suggestions: Wider spread collar, darker tie, have the shoulders taken in.

Just got this back from the tailor after having almost an inch clipped from the shoulders. I am most interested in what people think of the length. This is another one where I keep thinking it is too long...but seeing it in pictures not so much.

Opinions appreciated.

Almost all of my stuff. 90%, is RTW, and most of the really bold stuff is actually Polo RL or Isaia.

Thanks Holdfast, enjoy your holiday!

You need to get over your "it feels too long" phase, it's all in your head. The fit is impeccable.
