Can you hear la crie de la soie?
Le cri, non? (well, at least according to the odd movie of the same name; I've forgotten nearly all my schoolboy French these days...).
Actually, really nice outfit. Busy, but not overwhelming.
oh, I like a lot. New suit? Tie is cool, too, though the paisley police will probably complain.
I wonder if a slightly narrower spread on your shirt collars would suit you better.
Second of all, I never claimed to love HF's fit today (though I do think it's decent). I think HF gave you a pretty good explanation.
And that makes you just like everybody else, HF.
Damn my residual humanity.
Still working on doing better. Life of a grad student, eh? I think this will be considered more presentable though. Taken this morning before I'd really made it to my office.
The multi-points square is too precious IMO, esp. with an odd jacket/trouser fit. If it was a little lower in the pocket, it might pass. Even so, I'd give it a miss; puff is my personal favourite, though square is also fine. The thing with multi-points is that they really speak of so much deliberate effort that the rest of the outfit has to be ultra-precise and formal that for it to be congruous. Tighten the tie a little, too. Shirt looks interesting: contrast collar on a bengal stripe?
Can't tell much else about the fit, but I like the fabric on that blazer.
