Well, you're the one who knows the answer: in the last picture it looks a pure grey whereas in the others seems to have a green hint.
Personally I prefer it looking greenish and having more contrast with the grey cord on the trousers.

I like the outfit, but the shirt looks too casual/not on par with the rest. I would replace it with a finely knit turtleneck.

It seems to change depending on the lighting. It's interesting.

The shirt is a lovely knit and I was trying to combine the texture of the shirt with the tweed and corduroy.

I see your point and won't try to convince you (you have excellent taste), but I see some jarring, as the shirt is not the same level of formality as the rest of the outfit, all pretty classic and smart.

How do you prefer trousers to be finished?

  • Plain hem

  • Cuffed (1.5 inches or less)

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
