The Sartorialist

Great picture ;)

Nice.

The guy in the backgound seems to be wearing a very nice coat!

…..sex in motion…….he’s HOT!

hot cool hot hot damn…i’m saying hot double breasted suit NOT hot man lol….
i’ve always maintained that japanese/asian men have the best style..

Wow. They sometimes look better walking than in the usual stand-pose position. So candid. You can compare with the various people shown too.

You’ve shot him before, no? He still looks sexified due to some magical combination of cuff, kerchief and coiffe.

mltt

New York is the most beatiful place of this world,i think so.

Nice blog and greetings from Spain

That’s an impeccably cut suit, but he looks very stiff and uncomfortable in it which takes away from his look.

not usually a fan of double brested suits but the look on his face is awesome and the specific wild hair style is great!

Is this an image you captured on the street or did you download an expensive ad campaign? It’s quite evocative and wonderful

Has the double-breasted suit returned?

he may be the most beautiful man i have ever seen.

The double-breasted suit is officially back. Nice.

Great DB. I dig the length, erring on the side of shorter, especially for a DB gives it a much younger feel. The strong slant on the high peak lapels are another nice touch. Emphasizes the shoulders, slims the waist. Cool beans.

I think this is the first landscape fashion shot I’ve ever seen on this blog X-D

hey, its the Domenico Vacca 5th Ave. manager! I love that he is wearing a double breasted suit. It frames the body perfectly, and creates a nice upward visual flow (peak lapels). This man should be a spokesperson for young people wearing double breasted suits!
(why do we shy away from them?)

Is this the Domenico Vacca guy?

one of the most modern versions of a double-breasted suit that i have seen in daily life. good catch.

Almost unfair this guy can dress so varied and well that he gets routinely featured on these pages. Does the shop he works in pay him so handsomely that he can buy their product – or is it provided to him? If so, hats off, because he may have one extremely privileged position. I keep believing that only the very savviest and wealthiest of men have the means and wherewithal to dress so…dare I say, highly. I’m not discounting the folks featured here that make style work with pieces that may have been salvaged or bought for a steal – man, I do that. But the material, the workmanship, and the attention to tailoring detail on this guy just screams $$$$. The rest of us have to be like Jude’s Alfie and blow a paycheck on one premium piece at a time. Guy in the DB suit (which is not my thing, but hey): if you’re reading this, count your lucky stars.

This man exudes confidence. In addition to his impeccably tailored double-breasted suit, pocket-square and all, his posture is his key element.

Another great photo!
I’ve seen some of your other photos of this gentleman and find and have found him very stylish!

nothing special that i can see.

i’m not sure he has style, at least not concerning his way of walking…
he seams so stiff

I don’t generally like double-breasted coats, but his is so well tailored!

Elegant and classic, a look that always tops my list!…however, despite his slim physique, the jacket appears to be a bit snug in the midsection…

nice….but it would be nice to get away from 5th ave for a change of pace…

when I see this level of attention I think of only one thing- this guy works in a menswear store.

Too conservative for my taste. Needs a touch of colour or something else to modernize it except the hairdo. Maybe no tie?

Perfect example that double breasted not only means 50 years or older.
Great shot !

yes yes Oliver very handsome…

great, great photo! like a movie still!!

He looks familiar, have you shot him before? is he avoiding your lens or trying not to be too obvious?
perfect fitting suit – great colour too.

It’s his exotic good looks contrasted with the perfect Italian tailoring, that I love. Def works in the mens fashion world.

He looks fantastic. Classic.

the more I look at this picture, the more I want to wear what the guy in the background is wearing … great!!

Mr. Suit is pretty cool too. I don’t own a DB suit but used to; it was cut with a lower V which annoyed me as my tie would flop out whenever I bent over (which is why I loved that 3-button suits came into fashion then … I guess that means that, yes, we’re talking 90s here).

I’ve not really seen too many DB suits available, and wondered what that was all about … and given the number of comments here from people who seem alergic to the DB, I guess it’s more unpopular than I thought. I’d love to get a couple DBs to mix things up, provided the buttons are high enough to prevent the aforementioned tie-flop (not a big fan of the tie clip, BTW) … hopefully this photo will bring a few people around to liking the DB, even if it means messing with that annoying inside backwards button.
