Hopefully you at least tried them on while there, right?

Yes I did. The tailor said "oh that's terrible."

They didn't pin the jacket while on me though. They said they will be letting out the center seam, and realigning it to original state.

Pretty happy they can fix on short notice and at the price of $17 for the grey pinstripe

Just hope they do better than the last guy, and that the fabric can withstand three alterations now at the center seam!
Good price for the fix. I hope it turns out well; the suit is too nice to not have the proper alteration and fit.

I hate poor workmanship!  

You need your head looking if you return to the same tailor with 'simple' alterations.

I take the same care with an expensive suit, dress or the sewing on of a button.  My name leaves my workroom with ever garment and that matters to me.
