My Suit. Let Me Show You It.

The suit is bespoke, and fits perfectly. I'll have pics of me in it later on (better lighting). The suit itself is a full-canvas 2-button charcoal grey wool with a chalk stripe, ticket pocket (right side), working sleeve buttons, and dual vent. The lining is purple silk. The trousers (not shown) are straight-leg, no pleat with belt loops, and no bracer buttons.
Shown here are some semi-recent shirt purchases as well. The plain white oxford is a poor-fitting-but-purchased-in-an-emergency number from Banana Republic. The white-with-purple-and-grey-stripes is Kenneth Cole and fits better (17-35), even if not optimally. I really love that shirt, and wear it often. The blue-grey shirt is Calvin Klein Collection, and feels so wonderful against my skin. The fit is somewhere in between the BR and the KC shirts. I wear that one often as well. Most of these, I wear under something that will hide the ill-fit. Soon I'll have 3 bespoke shirts to go along with the second suit.
