Hey guys,
Just got my first shirt in from Modern Tailor.
Overall the fit is great and almost exactly how I like it. One problem I am having is that there is too much excess material under my arm and I would prefer the armhole to be tighter/higher. It's a bit puffy under the arm. Just wanted to ask which alterations I would do to make the arm better.
I was thinking to reduce the chest by 1/2 inch and bicep measurement by 1/2 inch? Those are the only two measurements that I can think of in that area that MT allows you to adjust on the website.
I've attached a picture. My wife has pinned the cloth to about how much I need to reduce so that it still feels comfortable but gives a slimmer appearance. Just want to confirm that it would indeed be the chest and half bicep measurements that I should reduce to get the desired fit as in the picture.
Also would this make the entire sleeve slimmer all the way down?
Thanks
