My G&G bespokes fit perfectly right out of the box. There were extremely minor issues on the first fitting. Of course that isn't going to happen every time, and, as with any bespoke item, some adjustments may be necessary in some case. But the fact that adjustments are necessary at all for some peop...

I have to agree. Interesting, and pretty unattractive.

Still much too square for my tastes, but I love the style you chose.

Can't you have morning dress for the morning and then change into black tie at the hotel or wherever the reception is held in the evening?

Yes, the H Lesser example is large: it is quite old, and I lost weight over the years. Didn't realize it until I looked at the photo. I will post a more recent WW Chan example, better fitting to current measurements! Congratulations! I'm trying to shave off a few pounds myself and am holding off on...

The suit is just wonderful. I do think that the H. Lesser's Carlo Barbera summer wool jacket is a bit large on you and as a result a bit shapeless.

A chap shouldn't have a wedding ring at all - although this flies in the face of convention in the US and parts of Europe. I found your statement intriguing and I came across this: http://weddings.about.com/cs/rings/a/mensrings.htm This is relief as I do not enjoy wearing jewelry. I am still a bach...

Wedding bands and men's style
