Thank you Matthew.
Every time there's something new to be learned. In this case the "swelled edges" on tweed which I have noticed before but did not know exactly why they were so wide.
I also loved the detail of the flower loop behind the lapel. It's sooooo nice to know it's there, even if it's seldom employed. I believe that you don't ask for a loop in order to carry a flower. It's the other way around. If you have the loop there, sooner or later you will force yourself to put it to good use.
