How many of you guys have a repository of "inspiration" fits?

I ask because I am thinking of starting a series of "exemplar" threads, as in "Exemplar: Double breasted odd jacket" and then post a maximum of five exemplars of this and asking others to do the same.

Thank you! Trousers are Incotex and shirt is Kamakura.

Kamakura? I had thought their OCBD collar was smaller and more modern. Glad to be proven wrong. Is the collar unlined? If not, how stiff/flexible do you find the lining?

Some of my Kamakura have slightly better roll than others, but I find them all to be good. All of my Kamakura have taller collars as is my preference, they definitely don't feel 'modern' to me. Collar is lined, but is not very stiff. I would call it lightly lined.

@Coxsackie what cloth did you opt for? Bespoke BnT I assume?

Yes, bespoke BnT. My one and only commission at this point, although I do have a length of the "Agnelli" tweed earmarked for a second project with them.

Material is Fox flannel. The suit is actually a 3-piece but works equally well without the waistcoat, against which yesterday's weather militated somewhat.

You can see that the jacket is just that bit roomier, to allow for a waistcoat underneath.

BTW thanks for all the thumbs, gents.
