Usually, a front shot won't reveal poor workmanship/fit. Back and side shots however...
People praising those suits do not have any understanding of how a garment should fit for the sake of presentation and comfort.

This thread is a fucking disaster these days and has been for months. With the exception of three or four posters, all one ever sees anymore are various elements of thrifted clothing, coupled with Jos. A Bank, "Valentini" and other downscale small town department store rags. Another symptom of the crooser-fication of AKAC..

A question brought to my mind by Tony's most recent posting: how much of fit is determined by the wearer himself. That is, his pose and attitude and confidence. I know it's unscientific, and maybe unquantifiable, and probably silly, but I think there's something (if only a little something) to it.
edit: that is to say, what you see all too much, and it's cliche but it's perhaps never more true than with clothing forum guys, is that the clothes wear them and not the other way around. Maybe because they think of clothing too much.
Charlie D. said that once you get dressed you forget about it for the rest of the day. That seems to me good advice. You don't ponce about -- think about it -- congratulate yourself, worry about anything. That sort of anxiety "wears" the suit.

More inanity. 99 posts in response to Dopey's dopey post. Some people have too much time on their hands. Lots of tryhards trying to be witty, but they AREN'T.

Valid or no, Ever since Carol Burnett's Scarlet O'Hara skit with the curtain rod through her shoulders I crack up at 'drape.'
