If he had his druthers, he would sculpt all his fabled clients into what he calls the Sy Devore All-American Look. Jackets, cut a good inch and a half shorter than the average, have square shoulders and single buttons. There is no handkerchief pocket-Sy hates bulges. Trousers have frontier pockets (like dungarees), no hip pockets, no cuffs, no belt (or a half belt in cloth), and are three inches trimmer than...
