I always manage to pick the best time to post my challenge pics: For DTO it was immediately after the Orge freight train, and for this one it is directly in between SpoomightaswellPokemyassrightoutofWAYWRNer and MBreinin.

In the end I just voted for fits that I liked. In retrospect, I should have voted for Upr, too. Sorry. Spoo, the purple chalkstripes didn't really read in the photo, so it came off more as conservative business dress than SBD (Spoo Business Dress).


If there's chalkstripes in that picture, I'm going to the optometrist. I didn't even see an indication of it in the closeup.

Wut? The suit is navy with deep purple chalkstripes. How can you miss that?

While I only have the one vote, I do contend that in the Gold Standard competition I was able to garner the Golden vote. This means I win. Sorry Spoo.

Sorry Theo - I thought I noted it somewhere. The suit is an Isaia Corallorosso. Gorgeous cloth and a dead on fit. I got it at Saks, but a friend of mine is selling one on eBay. I dont think this is your size, but maybe he can find you another? Tell him you are a friend of balearic1.
