What's your overall verdict, Sri?
Divots are not a function of sleeve pitch...
......look at the sleeves - barely any creasing at all. The suit is probably new (or fresh from a pressing) and probably will look better with more wear time.
Steed sometimes wore satin ties, often with a pearl tie tack. (Think a light blue with the contrasting pearl.) I like them on him, but the matching square here kills it for me. The B&W photo makes the tie above look silver, which I doubt it was and wouldn't like. But I am more open to other colors. Satin's at its best when peeking out above a vest, I think. A little goes a long way.
Everything about that suit is clean. Perhaps at the risk of looking too.. delicate. Not really loving the quarters either.
The tight hips on the coat bother me more than anything. Ick.
Lot of positives in that suit, to my eyes. Nice high armholes and a great sleeve pitch (no divots!), the cut is very military yet shaped, excellent button stance (really like the 3 buttons) and the lapel size look pleasing to my eyes. I think the quarters probably will stay closed when he is standing normally, which indicates that he wanted the jacket cut that way specifically. The besom pockets look interesting in how much farther they are from the buttons.
