You guys forgot to mention Leisure Suits......maybe Tan with a Nice Blue Paisley Poly Blend shirt underneath....I consider that very slimming and a Timelss classic look. Not to menttion extremely comfortable since you don't need a tie.

Technically speaking, both are classic depending on the period.

As an extreme example, the ex-professional football players wearing 4-6 button suits on TV with their massive bodies just look plain silly and out of balance.

TDF - Get it in the famous "Pin-stripe" fashion.......that always reduces size in a visual confrontations.....just make sure the stripes are going vertical....

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

Wow, those are some sweet suits. I have one like the white one in the second picture, but it only comes out between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Not only does it attract the fish, but it also works to repel unwanted advances when fishing the beaches of P-Town (where I only use a conventional).
