Mr. Rover said:I just got back my cream palm beach dinner jacket from the tailor...Whatcha think?
I think that I'd've worn it with either a burgundy/plum/maroon what have your solid coloured pocket scarf or, a black one and, I think that I would talk to the tailor about definitely shortening the sleeves to be at least a half to quarter inch short of your wrist bone and wearing cuffs that are fitted and slim but fitted to come exactly to point of bending between your lower arm and hand. I would also ask that the tailor fit the torso of the coat better so that it gives a true hour-glass fit as it ought to with it slightly fitted inward under the behind and more fitted in and smoothly so around the mid-section. It sounds as if it might give one an effeminate silhouette but, it does not and that really is how coats were tailored back then. Other than that, I LOVE it! Great look man! Have you considered a batwing bow tie with it, the kind with the pointed ends? I have a lovely semi-matte nailhead weave one from this one vintage store in Burbank out here in Cali. Its a bit narrow but very svelte. Awesome look!
