Sweet! Lovely high button stance. Nice pattern too.

And the boucle tie, eh? I have one .. i hate it. Your's is a much better pattern ...

very nice, and perfect for the man who can't decide if he prefers chalkstripe or pinstripe.

 

[Marc Chevalier]

So am I! And grenadine ties are great, too!

Fantastic suit. You and Mr._Misanthropy should get together someday and take pictures of yourselves side-by-side, wearing your new suits!

 

[Mr_Misanthropy]

Hmmm... yes, they do look like they go together well. Great suit, BellyTank, congratulations.

 

[BellyTank]

Ahhh... but your's is much nicer Mr_Mis'

No no, they're both great suits. I really love the colors in yours! I think it'd look sharp with a light blue shirt, and a blue patterned tie. Very sharp. I've always liked a blue/grey combination.

 

[Marc Chevalier]

I agree. Both suits are GREAT. I wish I had them both ... I wouldn't be able to choose one over the other!

 

[BellyTank]

That Peak Lapel job is just a much sharper suit... and it has those lapels...

But mine was dirts cheap and it fits, so I can't complain.

I really like peak lapels too. But I think that if vintage peak lapel suits were easier to find, they wouldn't seem as special.

 

[Mr_Misanthropy]

Am I going to have to lock this suit up somewhere with some heavy surveillance?
lol

 

[Marc Chevalier]

Yes.

 

[Mr_Misanthropy]

Ha ha, I thought so! I'll have to order a bank safe and use it as a closet. So Marc, with my new hat, will I look like the fellow in the upper right corner of your avatar?

I know, fftopic: ... i'm done.

 

[Marc Chevalier]

Yes, you will indeed. :eusa_clap
