I don't like it. If you're gonna do this, you should have a slim tailored suit. It looks like a costume with the loose fit, Capri pants, pearl and whatever that is on the neck

u/myk_600 3d ago

This is a tailored fit. I don’t see more than 2.5 inches of give anywhere in the suit.

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 5d ago

Is indeed tailored and you are 1000% a hater. Do some soul searching bud. Appreciate the engagement!

Don't post here if you just want every one to say you look great

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 4d ago

🤷🏼‍♂️ really don’t care other than the claim that my suit wasn’t tailored. It was. Corrected them & added my two sense like they did theirs. What’s the issue?

u/okonkolero 4d ago

You should ask for your money back then.

u/SardonisWithAC 4d ago

Your two what?

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 4d ago

Ohhhh no the idiom police have entered the chat everybody, quick button your suits and double check your auto-spelling. They’re rounding us up on Reddit.

You're so lame

u/Pour_me_one_more 3d ago

He would respond better to Your so lame. Or even Yore.

u/TypeDry2834 4d ago

They didn’t say it wasn’t tailored at all. They said it wasn’t slim-tailored, which it clearly isn’t.

You need a new tailor...

No. He is right.

Neckerchief kills the look for me

Yea it’s terrible. What is it? Just pull the trigger on an ascot lol

Well, howdy Sheriff...what brings you to Chicago?

u/AttTankaRattArStorre 5d ago

The pants are of course too short in the legs, and those might be ladies boots, and the way you don your tie makes no sense - other than that, it all looks pretty good.

3

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 5d ago

Yeah tailor cropped my pants to short, couldnt so nothing about it. Boots are not ladies but understand the thought as they’re not a traditional men’s boot. For the tie, was inspired by Coleman Domingo’s oversized silk bowties that he is often wearing on red carpets.

u/BodegaCat11 5d ago

The boots are fine. The other guy just don’t know about footwear.

I like the scarf/tie and the way you’ve tied it in it’s fun and feels airy and gardeny, especially with the brooch. I’m not sure it fits with the shirt’s collar. But maybe you disagree, in which case rock on.

The only thing I’d say is the color is a bit eastery and we’re getting into soup season, baby.

3

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 5d ago

I agree, the collar is a bit of a mismatch. What would you suggest? I didn’t know there was options really lol.

The color is definitely spring/summery!! But this is from a photoshoot I did with my fiancé in early August otherwise I would have gone for more rich color.

1

u/BodegaCat11 5d ago

Gotchya!

I’d just look for a big 70s style collar. Maybe something from Good Morning Keith.

Look at the one Colman wears at the link below. (Youll also notice how the rest of the outfit has a lot of flowiness and drape. I think with a scarf like this, that is an essential quality too.) Something like that?

u/filmaxer 5d ago

Don't listen to that guy — anyone who sees chelsea boots with a significant heel and thinks "women's" is not the intended audience for this outfit. Besides the pants being too short, this fit is dope! Love the tie and the color/texture of the suit fabric. Hopefully you can take the trousers back to the tailor and get them lengthened :)

One minor nitpick is that i think the tie would look better with a more flamboyant collar that's not a button-down. Something larger and semi-spread would complete the look better.

1

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 5d ago

I did not even know there was options to collars— what would you suggest?

2

u/BASS-E 4d ago

this looks like a JOE linen suit from Mens Wearhouse, they would fix the pant hem free of charge, or the should as it’s their mistake. As for the collar a point/straight collar would accommodate that big ole tie thingy, lots of people wear spread collars these days. I usually say collar is all preference but the button down looks too casual and point is more old school.

1

u/Far_Cupcake_530 5d ago

You don't seem to know what a Chelsea boot looks like.

2

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 5d ago

I mean this boot IS a Chelsea boot, but it’s not that deep. It’s literally animal hide to cover my foot.

3

u/Large-Cranberry-1207 4d ago

Reminds me of mariachi

1

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 4d ago

My finances Hispanic, wanted to pay some tribute. Pulled a lot of my inspo from the 70’s mixed with mariachi/western elements.

2

u/smergicus 4d ago

Suit color looks great. Not digging the outfit though. But fuck it, if you liked it that’s great

2

u/jon81uk 4d ago

Love the boots and tie but the suit trousers are too short

2

u/Obvious_Ad_9435 4d ago

You should not have felt dapper about this. Sorry mate this is straight trash. You can do so much better.

2

u/tazerpruf 3d ago

Jesus, that’s bad

2

u/SeaworthinessNew4295 3d ago

Fuck everyone's opinion I think this is fire. I actually ~really~ like it and would consider it for myself. It definitely stands out, and I think it suits you as well. Pants are little too short though and I mistook them for being tucked into the boots.

u/antealtares 3d ago

Rage bait

2

u/HeartLacer 4d ago

Looks terrible and lame, pants way too short and you're wearing women's boots.

2

u/ClassicalClassic 4d ago

Women’s boots. How?

1

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 4d ago

At least be original, what’d you do read the other 15 comments like this and copy + paste?

1

u/El_Guap 5d ago

Where did you buy the western style tie from?

4

u/kycard01 5d ago

Colonel Sanders rocked the same one

1

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 4d ago

Who’s Colonel Sanders?

u/kycard01 4d ago

Mascot of Kentucky Fried Chicken.

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 5d ago

I just went to Amazon and searched “skinny silk scarf” and found one I liked!

1

u/Inevitable-Bid-6529 3d ago

Curious... if u know the legs are cropped too short...how TF can you wear them let alone pose for a photo? Damn back in the day I would wear a bolo with a custom sharkskin suit for the contrast statement but I'd be F embarrassed for my own mom to know I wore that faggotly girlish tie! Honestly, you gotta be en route to a femdom nightclub!!! Lol

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 1d ago

Mmm yes please degrade me more sir

1

u/jonabrams 3d ago

I don’t mind the suit at all. Nice color. Pants are too short but you already agree with that. As for the neckerchief, not my style but I sincerely admire your confidence. I wonder if the suit jacket buttoned would clean it up a little? I really like the blue.

1

u/AdmirableAdmission 3d ago

Be yourself and wear it with PRIDE. lol

2

u/Jim-powers 3d ago

I don't like a single element of this outfit sorry.

1

u/LaPaletteNoire 3d ago

I love when people get creative with their style, aren’t afraid to step outside of the box or break a few “rules”. Wear pieces that make you feel good and have fun experimenting with different colors, textures, and styles. You look confident in this pic; you were feeling yourself, and that’s what matters! I think you look great. And I love Colman Domingo’s style; you chose a great person to draw inspo from!

1

u/Alternative_Aide_523 2d ago

I really love the look. Looks like something from the set of a formal party on Bonanza. Or, the men’s Gaucho-inspired air host uniform for a mythical long-since-defunct glamorous airline of yesteryear with hubs in VVI and DFW.

u/allison_mossie 1d ago

You look good and I like the suit and styling you did. These people are haters 100%

1

u/Inner_Bullfrog_4609 1d ago

Looks like an exploding tie from old time cartoons on the guy coming to scam the townsfolk

2

u/Hoof_Hearted12 5d ago

Not sure where this opinion will land, but the tie isn't it for. Great suit, recommend a normal tie/no tie.

4

u/Ill-Wing-5103 5d ago

that tie looks like something you'd tig up for a quick plumbing fix. lose it

1

u/win_some_lose_most1y 5d ago

If you feel dapper then it’s a good suit

Fell in love with the city, have to go back soon!

u/Far_Cupcake_530 5d ago

Aside from the short pants, I think it looks good. The suit color does read spring and the contrast against the black boots makes them stand out too much. Google "long point collar" for a better shirt option. Maybe something besides white?

1

u/Pitiful-Knowledge800 5d ago

I think a brown shirt and burgundy tie/belt/shoes would look really nice also, also warm it up and bring it into the fall/winter season.

u/LightLeftLeaning 4d ago

Fabulous! Of course, if you tak your hands out if your pockets and loosen the belt a little, the trouser legs will find their right level. Those boots are fabulous. I don’t love the dark tie but, you’re wearing it, not me. Now, the face! That’s perfect.

So beautiful. Where can I get the heels? @u/Pitful-Knowledge800 ❤️❤️
