Cripes, just realised that I forgot my PS!
Anyway, suit is an Anthony cut 2B navy pinstripe, size 40R. Fresh out of the box, unaltered. FWIW I am 6'0", 175lbs, 40.5" chest, 34" waist.
Any feedback would be welcome, both for the photos and my following comments.
I feel that I need to take the coat waist out about ~1" perhaps (as the suit is a drop 7). Ditto for the pants, which are a little snug at 33". This would be to correct for the tightness around my waist as evidence by the horizontal creases on the back.
I'm also a little concerned about the bunching at the rear upper bits of the sleeve - might this be due to my resting stance?
Thankfully though, the chest/shoulder/collar areas seems just right to me. In case anyone is wondering, the fabric is very soft, silky smooth to the touch and a beautiful shade of navy, and the (cream) pinstripe is more muted in real life (the flash brings it out a bit).
Pants are currently unhemmed: should I get them cuffed, or uncuffed?
And finally, the 'Holdfast pose'.
IMO relatively high scyes for RTW, but not the highest. All in all, I am happy with this RTW suit.
