Nothing says summer to me more than an Aloha shirt worn with a jacket that has a ticket out pocket.
You gotta take a train to the beach.

I rather like his collection of Aloha shirts. I don't have a single one but I'm contemplating it.

Then FFS if you're gonna post pics on here please get one that fits like a shirt, not Carnie Wilson's poncho.

So um, new suit today that I got altered at the brethren. I let out the waist just to see how it would look a lil looser from otr. Should I "shape" the chest a bit and keep the waist/hips of the jacket the same? Excuse the pants, it was windy and they smashed against my leg.

Have you tried the Milano? If the lapels were wider I would but them whenever I could in fun patterns (only want full canvas high quality staples now). The armholes are nice and the shape of the coat is really tapered. Shorter jacket too and the buttoning point isn't ridiculously high like other companies attempts to do a slim suit..

Here are some shots from the last days of my 5 month US stint. NYC just gets better by every visit.







Having some problems tying a nice knot from this PRL Cashmere tie, but the tie bar helps a bit to buff it up (not in the main picture though, bugger is laying totall flat and lifeless).

Most sales people from BB tell me to not even bother when I ask them. They take me straight to Black fleece.

Black fleece suits have a very distinct look. I think you may like a milano based on your prior fits. Just my 2 cents haha. I may be wrong
