Help me date this jacket?
There were/are two Alexandres - the current one in Savile Row and a fairly down market chain which was part of UDS I think. Not sure whether there was ever a connection but the label reminds me strongly of the chain. -

Help me date this jacket?
1970s at best - it does not look very special I'm afraid. In fact putting it out of its misery might be in order. Sorry - hope that you do not have much invested in it. -

I did say "prefer" not reject. Some suits meet that others don't and I accept them. I agree the combinations are many - I certainly have no problem with no back pocket but do prefer those to have decent fob pocket, preferab;y with button/hole not flap. I would not reject though for a flap. -

Outer (patch) breast pockets are different. I prefer that my vintage suits both look/fit as vintage and have all the other 'facilities' of vintage - so no appearance coupled with with modern ways. Sadly so many went wrong on the late 1950s/early 1960s. Does every one agree that we should... -

Because I prefer one only in vintage suits. Two fine for business suits. Coats rarely benefit from having things in pockets so I prefer to minimize. Do you go for the full set? -

Almost certainly British; The style of the right back pocket suggests this and the button/hole watch pocket also very British if sadly rare - button/flap being the norm which I think can break the line of the trouser. What inside [ockets does the coat have - one breast and left ticket only... -

Looks interesting, who made it? - do you have other views showing the fit of the trousers (full standing) and with and without the coat. I assume that you are left handed the inner pockets are unusual (though as I have them I must admit in a cuurrent day suit - different in vintage styles) -... -

Welcome : All questions I am afraid - who made it? Do you have any other pictures of it in a brighter light - Full view with you standing front and rear Similar without coat on inside of the coat - These should enable everyone to see it properly as is quite common here. -

It looks a briliant suit and you wear it well. You have not taken photographs without the coat on which always add a lot but to help date it it tell us about the detial. Inner pockets, trouser pockets, fropnt and back, zip fly, braces and high waist or whatever. -

When Did Suit Pants Get Back Pockets?
If they were tailor made then they may well not have back pockets - entirely the choice of the person who bespoke them. The same remains true to this day - one, two or none, button/hole, button/ tab, button/flap or not fastened at all is all at the discretion of the person ordering them... -

Thoughts on this jacket, please?
I agree with you that all 1970s is not bad bad. However this thing merely says over weight loud mouth American tourist 'doing' Europe in seven days. Not a good image at all.
