At a quick glance this man looks like a farmer or countryman, but a second look shows the detail of the tailoring; the cuff buttons, wide lapels and the cut of the jacket show that he is a fashion victim rather than a man at a shooting party. Nice style.
I love it because my head says that the fabric for the vest and the jacket should be reversed. Only it isn’t! Fashion brain training–learning to see things new ways. Gotta love it!
This guy just looks very scruffy. Individual items are good but the blend together especially the shirt collar and ill fitting waistcoat just does not work. This is not stylish in my view
Unless he meant it to be that way, which I would find restrictive and uncomfortable, I think the jacket looks too small and the waistcoat too tight. Otherwise the combinations of colours and mix of patterns is beautiful and classic.
How to stand out and be contemporary without wearing some stupid capelike garment. I love it all, historically aware yet fresh as. Hope he keeps it all for his sons and grandsons.
I’m sure I’ve seen the same man, wearing the same suit, but with a burgundy cardigan instead of the odd jacket. Which, is exactly what I would do if I had such great pieces, but no matching suit jacket.

The only thing that reminds me of this century is the concealed cell phone! The blue shirt is a good contrast to the tweed. Classic.

That is just close to perfect….other than the shirt is too small in the collar so he can’t do up the top button

Gatsby? Don’t think so.
The outfit is too tight, and not in a good way.
