I disagree. I have a Fresco blue blazer by WW Chan that is veeerrryyy unstructured and looks great and is super comfortable. One of the jackets that gets the most wear from my closet.

Yes, I recommend to be very careful with linings and canvas colors for darker fresco.

Looks very good from the front shots. Who is the tailor making the garments? What is the cloth on the sport coat?
