@voxsartoria @NashvilleDore One thing he would have tailors do is put extra large pockets on the inside of the jackets so he could carry books in them. It would be surprising if the jacket in the photo was bespoke, and I certainly never saw him wear it in the early 90s.

@voxsartoria @NashvilleDore Yikes, sorry I didn’t see this for so long. It’s a great question but I have no idea. RK had some bespoke stuff done when he was spending a lot of time in Scotland in his younger days. He still wore those suits late in life, but they were of much more conservative appearance.

I have a Peter Scott wool/angora sweater and the angora (25%) really gives it a nice cashmere type texture. I wonder why more wool sweaters don’t throw a little angora in.
