Thanks

It's funny you're not the first person to tell me that about the lapels. I dunno if its a European thing, but I bought the suit from Milan (Versace Collection).

Yes. Faddishly thin. They'll look very dated before the suit shows noticeable wear.

The three items look fine together, but take note that a lot of people on here (me included) prefer: more generous lapels; a wider tie (3"-3.5"); a tie 'dimple'; spread shirt collars with points long enough to sit under your jacket lapel; pocket squares!

...And I would say throw in a nice tie bar for good measure...

The tie width isn't bad, but those lapels are too slim for anything other than a fashion suit.
