First of all, the Tailors thread....

That said, the jacket looks too tight in the chest, there's a disparity in the amount of sleeve showing (might be due to movement), and the legs need to be slimmed down. Good job of using the mirror to get so many details in one picture.

Legs don't need to be slimmed so much as they need hemming to fix the quadruple full break going on down there and rebalancing in the back so they don't crumple up under your butt.

There's not enough room in the sleevehead for your actual shoulder, and the sleeve crumpling looks atrocious but I'm not sure if there's anything you can do to fix it other than pressing the sleeves. The sleeve angle is also off for your natural posture.

Being 132 pounds with little chicken legs is rough. :(


I wouldn't say it's your fault. OTR pants rarely fit perfectly. Have you tried a Milano? Slimmer throughout.

The fitz is a tough model to work with.

I have not tired the pants. I have very small square shoulders. The Milano lapels were to skinny for my personal taste. I'm wondering if the benjamin suit would be a better shot with my body type.
