summer jacket

[Kas]

Hello Gents,

First post here. I am looking to commission an odd jacket for the spring/summer. I will take a look at the mohair, fresco and linen/linen mix swatches.
I am favoring a shade lighter than navy, though after some research I really like some of the tobacco shades I've seen.

I would appreciate any comments on the color, as well as some preferences in fabric.

Thanks in advance

Why not subscribe for the upcoming London Lounge Brisa; there should be a blue-grey Prince of Wales check, and possibly a tobacco if Costi has his way, coming up soon. I can attest that the fabric is comfortable to wear in warm and humid conditions, drapes well, resists creasing very well, and looks very good.http://www.thelondonlounge.net/forum/vi ... f=2&t=8591 shows images of past iterations.

Tobacco is a great choice. If this is a first commission I would probably go for a plain rather than patterned fabric. Once you're completely happy with the first garment you can start to get more adventurous with future commissions.
