This suit I feel in love with and had to have as soon as I saw it when the fall collection came out. It is a three piece suit made in Italy and fantastic cloth. I am wanting to see what yall think of the fit. I know that pants are to long but just wanted to see what you thought of the suit all together.

Nice cloth, but you need to reqork the fit a bit. The biggest issue is the lenght and the gaping vents at the back.

In regards to the vents being open, what can i do with a big butt that i have and that is the reason that the side vents stick out?

Very nice, but as others have pointed out, it looks like a size too small.

There's a chance (a small chance, but still) that a tailor can open up the back and/or side seams just a bit to open up the back without losing the shape of the jacket. I'd recommend sizing up and having it tailored, though.
