Yo button that and it'll tone the lapels down, super bad ass jacket from an amazing collection, definitely a good piece for you dude. Hem those pants though, seem too straight cut to stack. Oh, and SWAG OD, SWAG OVERLOAD.

It's one of those 19th century inspired pieces. If its in you wear in good health otherwise get rid of it as it will always bug you. The only "romantic poet" pieces I have that are clearly like that are two jackets (white Ann D frock and Paul Harnden jacket) as I tend to prefer a less obvious retro inspiration (Balenciaga modern frock coat, my other three ann jackets). I'll continue acquiring Paul Harnden pieces though, now that I've determined the exact cut I like.

I imagine once my aesthetic matures I'll be attracted to this look even more. Still having fun and playing around with various avant garde designers at the moment, but can see myself slowing adding pieces from Ann and PH in the future.

pants way too baggy, and you seem to try to hide it through your pose?
