Not a very smart move on my part. For my first MTM suit, I bought a dark grey woolen with subtle chalkstripe. More recently, I bought some fabric which looks very very similar (though, it's a pinstripe). I don't want to have seemingly idential suits, so I'm looking for ideas to differentiate them.
The suit that is already made is a 3 button, rolled to 2.5 with flap pockets. I'm thinking the next should be 2 button, rolled to 2, with besom pockets. Can you think of anything else I could do to make them appear different? I'm planning on using different tailors, so that in itself should have an effect on the overall shape and fit/finish. I also toyed around with the idea of making the second suit DB, but I seldom where my DB as it is. Short of selling the cloth, or making a horizontally stripped suit (har har), any other ideas?
