FNB, the suit is nice. The lapel roll is awfully flat for my tastes, but I like something rather three dimensional. Any reason you roll like that?

Re: This forum's suit standards...
FNB, I think the sleeves are a tad shorter than I would go, but, otherwise, I think the suit looks fantastic.
Is that a Paris shirt? The cloth looks immaculate with the suit.
Btw, what's the name of that stripe? Is it "dot stripe"? I have suit of almost the same cloth, but I never know how to properly refer to it!
And of course nice going with the face, but why block out Nino's face?? A lot of us already know what he looks like. Unless that's not Nino...
Cheers.

Re: This forum's suit standards...
One thing about Nino. He is a very special man.
He is an artist, he is a tailor, he is Italy, the natural shouldered tradition, NYC and England rolled up into one. He believes in beauty and perfection blended in equal parts. He is humble, he is honorable and he absolutely does not skimp on anyone no matter who you are. I am a better person for knowing him. The fact that he makes superb suits is merely an extension of his character and his quest for excellence.

Re: This forum's suit standards...
I was surprised, FNB, that you wore that shirt with that tie. They're almost too similar? Could they be said to give the appearance of having been too thought out?
Though I have to say that among the MB dudes pics I've seen, you've got one of the most developed senses of color. In some of your essays, color seems to my admittedly not-so-clever eye (or perhaps just less inclined to stray from the path of my earlier experience with plain shirts and Brooks ties) to strain the bounds of what works and what doesn't. Falling just on this side of the former.
I love the shirt by the way. Esp. with those suit fabric.
