And this gets a 'bump' to stop it drifting away on to page two without comment!
Very JFK!
Very Andover Shop-y too!

I saw the film Syriana tonight. Often, Clooney's character and the other CIA guys wear the 2 button suit. In Clooney's case, it's rumpled, center vent, etc.
Similar to the Dorset II model here:

I have a vintage Brooks two button center vent slightly fitted suit that is quite versatile. It has the signature two buttoned cuffs.
