The tailcoat originates from the 19th century. Starting life as a riding jacket, its cut away front edges kept the coat out of the way of the rider's knees whilst the two buttons at the back enabled him to fasten the tails out of the way when on horseback.

Good Quality but Quite Loose Fit
The quality is decent, and the upper half is great. What I find not so good is the size around the waist. I have a 40R, and the sleeve length is about right; so is the shoulder width, but around the waist there is so much extra material.
Usually, I wear a slim-fit or super-slim-fit jacket, but this one isn't supposed to be slim. Still, it can be more flattering to the body than it is. Considering the quality and the upper half, I'd give a four.

Thank you for your feedback Mr Teng as you say it's not a slim cut
