Oooh, nothing nicer than a guy in a 3 peice suit. Paul McDermontt (Australian TV comedian/presenter) is the best wearer of 3 peice suits I’ve seen.

Just a pity they guy has the bottom button of the waistcoat fastened in each of the photos! It should really be left undone.

Icy, I agree. Men should at least have 1 in their closets :)
Gary, I guess that’s how you guys should wear ‘em these days?

Gray??, I thought it was spelled Grey.
Also, top button buttoned, bottom button not.

I saw Icy’s comment and googled/youtubed Paul McDermott up. And yes, Paul does carry the waistcoat off really well, there’s no doubt about that. Also, I like how he loses the jacket throughtout most of this shows, ahhh, guys in three piece vested suits do look darn good.
