Here's my second shirt from Luxire. It fits generally well but I'd like to clean up a few things, especially the wrinkling/pulling in the shoulder area, as circled in red. What kind of adjustments should be made to alleviate this? Any other things to change for my next one? Appreciate the feedback!

I had a similar issue with a trial shirt and for my current order in progress I pointed them to the following link for a possible solution:

http://propercloth.com/reference/tailored-vs-full-shoulder-armpit-fit/

The idea is to set the sleeve at a downward angle relative to the body, as opposed to "straight out" at a 90 degree angle. Credit to An Acute Style for identifying this approach earlier in the thread. Hopefully it's the answer.

@Macs and @venividivicibj thanks for the feedback, i'll take them into account for my next shirt.

I think i'll go for a white oxford BD this time. I know of the warzone white oxford but it seems to be a bit thick. Can anyone comment on how it compares the sky blue or classic blue oxford in terms of weight / thickness?

My shirt was also delayed in Bangalore, was supposed to arrive today and is currently in France. Looks like our orders are traveling together.

Any forum members have any tips on getting a collar like this? Both style, fusing/lining options and collar point length?

Just paid for a wool blend A1 Blouson to be made. I don't think I've seen anyone else order one. Here's to being a guinea pig.

Can anyone who has had a suit/ suit jacket made up by luxire comment on the quality? (Shoulder, canvassing, etc)
