The satin facings with the mandarin collar do vaguely bring up images of a Trachten jacket in my mind...which is very cool. I like them and have often thought one would make a good kilt jacket with some minor work. I'm not a huge fan of doublets of any type, but I've seen a few good examples lately--this one included--that are makeing me change my mind.
I like the "tie" with this, though I'd prefer a solid color if I were wearing it. "Poofy"and lacy things just don't appeal to me. Some guys pull it off well, others look like they are trying to dress like Prince. I like the very clean line of this one. Very slick.
It's always good to see someone do something original. Some will like, some will not. I for one am really digging this! Even the belt with the waistcoat works pretty well. Well done Sir.
