    Double Breasted Style.

    Looks like an orphaned suit jacket.

    What color pants should I wear with this jacket

    Daytime, a cream or light tan pair of trousers. I would avoid wearing that as a SC at night.

    Is this Park Avenue fit correct?

    The Park Avenue last is one of the narrower AE lasts....usually one will need to go wider than the pure measurements would indicate. That said, assuming the measurements were correct, you may want to consider a different shoe. Some lasts just don't work on some feet....you end up having to go...

    I'm gonna buy a BLACK suit.

    I hear once you go black, you can never go back. So be careful.

    What kind of pants does a grey sport coat work with ??

    Cream or winter white trousers and a pink shirt. Would work in Spring/Summer in most places.

    Ambrosi Napoli

     The sartorial community is relatively small. He's like a silicon valley start up that secured $5 million dollars and feels like partying it up. Well, enjoy the Louis XIII's while you can. If and when he fails, or irreparably damages his reputation, people will remember his past doings...

    Ambrosi Napoli

    Whatever the outcome, he's lost more in future business than he gained from Mafoofan's pre-paid 9-10 pants. This cyber black eye will be visible for a long time for any new potential customers and will impact his business for at least the short-midterm. Personally, I think he's being penny...

    Idea for a new thread: Why Would You Wear That Anytime? (WWYWTA)

    Take any pic from the WAYWRN thread and place it here with appropriately acerbic commentary. Stylewrecks strewn asunder along siren settled shoals.

    whnay.'s good taste thread

    A very nicely coordinated look.

    If you do not own the following things, you are not well dressed

     According to Will, most men would need .5 meters.

    Need advise on my next sport coat

    Minnis 520 Fresco would be a great choice. The brown button approach is good, but navy horn buttons would work better at night. I have a navy sportcoat with brown buttons, and I only wear it during the day. The brown looks great during the daytime, but when I'm wearing black shoes at night...

    How are polos suppose to fit?

    You probably need to go down a size. Mine are a little snug in the chest; a custom fit polo shouldn't be 'baggy' on you.

    Can I adjust these in the basted fitting?

    Call him ASAP. Those are significant changes.

    Recent non-Sartorialist Looks

    Bradley Wiggins needs to rethink his collar. He has a long, thin face and his long point collar accentuates that negatively. He should be the poster boy for spread collars. Great fitting suit though.

    How to wear a white shirt

     Light blue works better in the day for most business contexts (especially with your complexion/hair). Just a personal observation, especially if you are wearing dark business suits. But white definitely looks better at night.

    Looking for a dinner jacket

     For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds; Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.

    Fit Critique?

    It would be more helpful if you a) showed a full body shot so we can see the jacket and the entirety of your legs, b) a picture from the back, also showing a full body shot. Your jacket based on the selective geography makes it appear that your jacket is way too short, but you could just have...

    Wearing a white dinner jacket at the opera?

     You're trying to write checks your sartorial bank account can't cash.

    Tie Ratio - Wide End vs Short End

    If it were a fashion candid I would just think that he had the long rear blade tucked in but it had pulled out for the pic. Not sure what the provenance of the pic is so I'm willing to give the guy some benefit of the doubt.
