It looks very good. Which cutter?

That's a handsome suit. I'm developing a taste for single-breasted coats with peak lapels. Thanks for the pictures.

DB waistcoat? That is pushing the boat out! But you seem to have a very classic, very Savile Row sort of suit. Congratulations, and condolences on behalf of your future bank account.

Only comment is the back of the sleeves seem a bit rumpled. Was this just a pressing issue, or perhaps the lining is not getting along so well with your shirts?

Also, I do somewhat agree with Manton that the vest crosses over a little higher than it needs to. But your cutter might have had other reasons.

The suit looks absolutely excellent, and I like high cut vests with little shirt and tie showing. I also like the look of DB jackets cut high in the same way.

I like the cutting of that db-waistcoat. I prefer the higher-cut opening as opposed to the lower openings. I find that it frames the tie and face better, especially when wearing a point collar instead of a British spread collar. I find that a higher-cut V with double-breasted jackets and waistcoats is more elegant than the lower ones. If you want to show off your tie, wear a single breast jacket!
