I agree with @Andy_00 with one qualification. The gorge is not only too high relatively speaking, it is simply too high regardless of the other stylistic features mentioned. Very much IMHO, of course. An exceptionally high gorge just looks odd and wrong to my eyes, no matter what.Thanks for the feedback @Andy_00. I hadn't really thought of the gorge in relation to the button stance, but you make a good point. Having said that, I actually requested a lower gorge, but it wasn't possible. Few MTM outfits will do that kind of modification, as far as I can tell. The button stance actually sits at my natural waist, but I agree it does appear quite low in the photos. The effect could maybe have been mitigated somewhat by a longer jacket (which I also asked for), but I agree that the combination of these things is not optimal.
