The overall silhouette should evoke the impression that one is wearing an E-Type Jaguar.
Ah, quite sleek. But I think Ray is going more for the Essex Terraplane silhouette.

Tumbleweed, re: trousers, I like mine to be just full enough for movement and comfort, but taper down to about 16". Those look really nice, and almost no one can make modern flat fronts that fit or look right anymore. The ones from the '30s (yes, flat fronts existed then) were also pretty well balanced. For a good example, look at Sir Connery's suit in the third Indiana Jones movie.

Funnily enough, I stumbled across the style I described with trousers from Baron Boutique. I never gave any particular specifications with them, so I guess it's their house style. The first pair was somewhat subtle at 18" cuff, but with the second I took it out to a 20" cuff.

Also BB trousers are absurdly comfortable.
