Jovan said:My only nitpick with the last outfit is that the drape of the trousers doesn't seem to match the relative fittedness of the coat much.
I know, i agree, that's one of my problems with the outfit too. The real problem is that i've reduced the waist on those trousers 4 inches. The fullness through the thighs is meant for a totally different body than mine, and when wearing a jacket that fits my body type, they look slightly odd.
Without the jacket it just looks like the super-extra-full-through-the-thighs trousers of the 30s.
As for the blue one, it's a strange beast all around. It reminds me very much of German 30s suits. The armholes are super high (i find that the German 30s jackets always seem have higher armholes for some reason). The trousers have the "English" pleats and are really quite low waisted - about 1/2 inch below my natural waist when hiked right up. Weird. Maybe it was a boy's suit? Strangely full through the chest for a boy's suit, but just maybe.
