Eh. I see shoulders jutting sideways out of sleeves all the time amongst men, usually younger ones like me, who obviously went for the slimmest fitting suit they could squeeze themselves into. It might sound like I'm nitpicking, but when a jacket is too tight in multiple places--as in Apropos's case--it gives the impression of great tension. Personally, I find it uncomfortable to look at, nonetheless imagine wearing.Originally Posted by mafoofan
Man, I really do appreciate you foofing my jacket, but you really do assume a heck of a lot based on a not-great internet photo, and furthermore state these assumptions as fact.Originally Posted by apropos

That statement you highlighted was a general one and not directed at you. The only inference I made about your jacket specifically was that it looks too tight, not that it is the tightest thing you could squeeze yourself into. Also, if forced to assume--as I often am, since I'm working with photos--it only makes sense to assume something is already as tight as can be rather than loose enough to trim. That way, I ensure that the changes are theoretically possible while demonstrating that slimmer fit is not always the most flattering (or even slimming) one.Originally Posted by mafoofan
With more natural shoulders this time:Originally Posted by mafoofan
This is better, but I still think the shoulders are unconvincing. The shoulders make him look like a burly linebacker, but the width of his neck shows he's not. It's the same reason I don't think Black Label works well on skinny guysOriginally Posted by DocHolliday

The contours of this hanger preserve the integrity of garments, keeping them wrinkle-free and away from unnecessary fabric wear (e.g. shoulder dimples, stretching).
