1+. PG inspired me to elevate my post pics and also to consider light/composition. Accordingly I have attempted to elevate the quality of posts. I have seen this in other posters as well. For example, Vox's outdoor shots are incredible. He captures the fit with excellent color/composition (ie the big head shot). PG hits it out of the park with creativity and skill. Others have mastered this as well (see quotes below). Overall, love the "bar-raised" WAYWT posts.

I like the faded jeans with the nicer jacket. I would have amped the shoes (more formal) but that is a personal pref. Looks good. Share?

This picture reminds me of Rorschach from the Watchmen, in a good way. Absolutely love that trench.

The silhouette does not match my other two Rubinaccis, which I like much better.

This jacket was part of my first bespoke commission, all with Rubinacci, and the one for which I surrendered artistic license. The disappointment with this piece caused me to switch firms, although I would like to try Rubinacci again, next time under Mariano's guidance.

This is my only regretted bespoke purchase out of about 15. I suppose that's an OK batting average, but I'd prefer to hit 1.000.


Not sure what all the hate is about as I think this looks really good. The hacking pockets are like a breath of fresh air compared to all the group-think patch pockets around this place. I really like the waist treatment on this jacket as well. Is there a particular reason you don't like this jacket or only because it doesn't fit the traditional Rubi asthetic?

Love the green socks, is the tie a green shade too? If so well done.

Nice combination, but I think the flower is Over the top, perhaps a smaller one would have worked.

I'm unfamiliar with the rules of working cuffs.

2. He noted that the sleeves were too short. New sleeves will be cut and fitted to the first shirt. A new left cuff, a bit narrower in circumference, will also be cut and refitted to the shirt.
