Thanks to Alan, My new Jacket

Alan set me up with a coat that was a bit too small for him. Here's a few of me attmpting my version of a McMurdo/Panache photo spread

An attempt at a vest and tie:

A bit more casual with a turtle neck sweater:

This jacket goes very well with my new Oren Peterson Tartan. Thanks Alan!

That KILLAH job of modifying the jacket, gauntlet cuffs and gauntlet pockets, was done by our very own VMAC232...

...who clearly knows her business!

jacket looks good with that kilt! YEEAAAHH!!

Looks good!

If you want to wear it with the waistcoat I would recomend getting two very small safety pins and tacking the bottom up on the inside of the the waistcoat to shorten it.

A cheap, quick and easy fix to a too long waistcoat with a proper length kil jacket.

PM me if that didn't make sense

Cheers

That is one nice looking jacket.

Very nice. Congratulations. I like the turtleneck look myself (satisfies the spy in all of us.)

I like the black waistcoat with the grey jacket. You might want to consider replacing the buttons on the waistcoat with ones to match those on the jacket. I think it would present a more unified look.
They're both very good looks. Congrats, and keep posting the pics!
