Some things to note about a lovely outfit from Andrew in Atlanta: The weight of the trousers (and their sizable cuffs) is consonant with the blanket-weight coat and its large, bold pattern. Similarly, heavy wingtips stand up to the weight of the pants and their cuffs. The tie pattern is different enough from the coat pattern (and simple enough) that they do not compete for attention. The square adds a bit more color without being demanding (or matching the tie). The coat, despite its weight, has a lovely shape without being tight.  Note the graceful waist suppression. This is what fall should look like.
