I like the sleeves as is, agree with shorter pants, agree that the chest should come in but only on the right side

Does a knit tie read too rustic/informal for the occasion? Love the texture but the square bottom is definitely new to me

Might try to get the best of both worlds with something like this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/176551191887?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=iz1ma4p5rpu&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=1ZDjd7VfRbm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Deep Burgundy Silk Grenadine Tie (Garza Grossa) Self-Tipped

The two primary variants are "Garza Grossa" (Large Weave) & "Garza Fina" (Fine Weave). These ties use the Grossa variant which is widely praised for its bold and intricate texture. Grenadine is one of the most sought-after fabrics for ties due to its unique texture and scarcity.

It’s hard to tell from just that photo, but the jacket hem looks like it may be longer than ideal. If it were shorter, it could add some visual length to your legs, which you may prefer.
Is it possible to have the trousers tailored to have the legs tapered? Just a thought.
