Hmm. Not the answer I wanted to hear, having a different tailor... thank you, though! I think I recall seeing something vaguely similar (albeit a bit darker) in an H&S book a while ago. Still, I know what my next summer suit will be, if I can find something similar. Lovely colour.

I don't look to Lapo for inspiration as a rule, but I'm thinking that the best combination with a pink tie is shown here with a white shirt and tan suit.

The fit is good but those lapels are ridiculous.
