I love the proportions and placement of the lapels in particular. He is so confidently unpressed that geeky notes of the shrunken jacket are just shot through with sexiness.
Hi Sart, this is another nice photo from Stockholm! Keep ‘em coming!
This is a wonderful summer-weight sports jacket. However, I think it would also work well as a two-button single-breasted. Is this a peak lapel? I can’t tell from the photo. This gentleman’s haircut and expression are very nice. He has the look of an Oxford University officer home on leave from the trenches of France during the Great War. A classic look.
Stockholms’ Marlboro(light)Man! Now here I go Americanizing this comfortably smart outfit, Untuck the shirt! Really wish I could see the shoes, though. However, I agree the jacket is beautiful!
Looking out of the window at grey london just makes me jealous of being able to wear outfits like this. Everything about the shrunken jacket is perfect for this swedish gent. I am a little unsure about the pants but i would have to see them in full to pass opinion. The top half however is perfect summer dressing.
But let’s not overlook the color combo he’s wearing, with the trousers and shirt. And his hair plays a part, offering complementary color/contrast. It’s really warm and engaging.
Also, I’m sure I am not the only one to mention this, but the other people in the photo look so good!
Oh, and the lighting–my absolute favorite thing about your photographic eye! You nail it every time.
This guy’s clothing seems to match the character of his personality coming out in his face. Always interesting when a person’s fashion does that. Makes for a great photo, and he must have a keen sense of self.

The jacket colour is a smart choice, with his skin and hair colour. Looks great. Yeah and the hair is perfect.

By shrunken, Scott, you mean scaled-small, right? As opposed to put in a washing machine and….
Only trouble I have with the look is the pants, which don’t carry the style….

It’s not the pants themself that look funny. He’s just wearing his belt in a wrong way.

I like the shrunken jacket, but my eye was more drawn to the guy behind him, with the paint-spatter-printed shirt. Very cool.
