Proportion

Maybe I'm being silly, but this necktie knot strikes me as too small for these lapels. The tie is unusually thin, and the lapels are unusually wide, and the knot-collar assemblage seems overpowered by the lapels.

There are worse problems to have, I suppose. Food for thought, though. The same thing happens with trendy suits with skinny lapels when worn with a necktie of normal width. The tie seems huge in context.
