I will send the winner a tailoring related prize (as long as you are happy to PM me your address) .. BUT rules are as follows:

1) must guess BOTH jacket & trousers worn together correctly
2) if there is a draw as he wears multiple outfits over coming days as expected, meaning two people have guessed different outfits correctly OR two people have chosen the same items ... then anyone who has rightly guessed his outerwear & accessories with his outfit will get bonus points which will determine the winner .. like in Highlander 'THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE'.
3) only one guess per person

are you serious Formby? look at the suit man .. stripe alignment on lapels is REALLY not a pressing concern as the basics of cut and fit are a unmitigated disaster. perhaps a deliberate disaster but the stripes not being aligned is at the end of 25 other major problems. 

worried man .. a) are you Simon Compton? b) why on earth did you chose this cloth? were the lights on at the time?

I've never actually been massively impressed by cloth matching on pockets, lapels or sleeves. It seems like one of those things people who don't know tailoring are obsessed with as a 'sign' of quality as fundamentals cant be judged themselves. In fact I would go as far as to say that cloth being unmatched probably looks better, as the lapels, pockets become more defined and therefore their shape is seen more easily.
