I could be way overthinking this, of course.

I think that jacket looks terrible on him. Those peaked lapels are insanely horizontal. Peaks should point up. Those lapels emphasize the wideness of his face

Search for Tautz lapel and prepare to gasp in horror, if that's your opinion.

A smaller tie knot would have done wonders too.... but we are talking about pocket squares here! That fold is really, really impressive.

I think wide and low, horizontal pointing, peaked lapels (and wide spread collar shirts) only look good on people with very narrow, sunken-in heads like Prince Charles. If you have a big ol' head like that guy you should stick to a more narrow lapel. Not all suits work on all people.
Kobe looks amazing in this suit. Notice the peaks are pointing UP and he is wearing a point collar, not a wide collar like the Prince.
I chose pics with pocket squares to keep the discussion going!
