Hand Me Up, Hand Me Down

By Izzy

Billy Baldwin

Billy Baldwin’s jacket is way, way too long (as are its sleeves). Some hand-me-downs ought to be politely rejected.

    Hmmm.

    Who on earth wears a suit top and denim pants and thinks: “This is soooo hot!”???

    Ed:
    No kidding! He looks like a 90’s-era corporate bigwig trying to do the “business casual” thing and failing.

    Yes he looks bad. But the problem with the jacket is not the sleeves or jacket length. The problem is that it doesn’t fit at the shoulders and this carries down through the rest of the garment. Note the way the jacket collar is opening and yet fabric is pulling around the top button. Bad.

    That and the camera is placed too high and then angled down. I realize it shows the whole outfit from top to toes, but it looks like a snapshot taken by Shaquille O’Neal. It also creates weird perspective effects so his legs and feet look tiny. Just back the heck up already and you can get the whole outfit without shooting from the stratosphere.

    I wonder if his big brother Alec gave it to him.
