Cloak peacoat

Nitpicking, but buttoning the jacket like that makes it look a bit off. Or is it too small?

That Cloak peacoat has always been a bit weird-fitting in my experience, I had one in my size that looked off like 75% of the time if it wasn't sitting perfectly on me. It's a pleasure to look at on a hanger, but I couldn't make it work. Try buttoning all the front buttons, seemed to make it fit "straighter" on me.

Since I'm posting, here's a fit from a couple days ago:



Rick
T-shirt
Nonnative
Jun Hashimoto

Kick ass

what kind of leather is your rick?

[nicelynice]

Thanks, heavy washed lamb from FW08, one of my favorites from him

[Faust]

Ah, those pesky stooges sleeves, too long, are they not?

[nicelynice]

They are indeed, and I've been waffling about getting them hemmed for, oh, the past four years or so. They're nice in the winter when my hands get cold, but quite obnoxious in most other situations

I tried buttoning the top button, I do think it looks better that way, thanks!

Also, it is tiny bit small on me but I'd prefer a slimmer fit than to size up on this piece... maybe I will lose a little weight this summer...

^The peacoat fit is way better then the other one (sorry, there's just nothing right going on in your previous fit), but yea why wouldn't you button the top button on a peacoat? I have this coat and totally love it, it does have a strong shoulder and a supressed waist but I think the cut is brilliant, not awkward at all. Only complaint is that while it looks awesome to have super slim sleeves, the armholes are super high on mine which can get uncomfortable (but I got an XS, oh well suffer for fashion).

I have a peacoat, too.

After I tried buttoning it I'm not sure why I did not before ... it seemed like the lapels rolled right past the top button like a 3r2 blazer and it felt like the top button was never used by the previous owner, but I do agree it looks better buttoned.

I agree with the fit, it does not seem awkward on me but I could see it not working for some body types with a small drop.

The last fit was an experiment, I have not posted a pic of the Devoa pants and I think I got my opinion about what they look like... although I think they may look a lot better irl/in motion. But what I'm hearing is "sell them"...

edit: I should also mention I have huge legs, the pants in the last fit are near skintight at my calves (16") and this limits my pants selection and makes things awkward sometimes... I just can't slim my leg silhouette down.

ES3K and Shucks looking good w or w/out peacoat!

[shuit]

few days back..

[unwashed]

Nice Shuit and Shucks. Like the silhouettes. The fits kinda look similar with the slim jeans, hi-tops, flaring underlayer/skirt and crewneck/sweater. Shucks wearing the more cleaner version and Shuit the rugged version.

Shucks, do you wear your shoelaces around the shoes or tuck them away?


last weekend, first days of spring deserve something less dark

Just do it.
