In response to what I think you are talking about. We can't really expect an m2m to fit someone perfect, let alone an online m2m. I don't remember what the post was about. But I'm pretty sure the person wanted a 'slim' suit that is popular right now and the critique was for a tradition bespoke suit.
It is ignorance to critique someone with out trying to understand the look they are going for, and it is incompetent of any tailor to critique and not understand that times change and styles change.
The collar of the shirt is too high. Did you feel like you were holding your shoulders back for the photos? I ask because the coat looks tight from the front and loose from the back. The pants seem a bit short from the rear? The sleeves need to be adjusted a bit. Its very important to stand as naturally and symetrically as possible for fittings and fitting photos...This honestly looks like a stance issue... Do you have another photo?Hi all,
I just tailored a suit and would like to get some feedback on the fit.
I personally feel that the skirt of the bottom center part of the suit (not sure what that is called) is not spaced apart enough.
Please advise on what kind of changes I can make to my suit to achieve the effect as circled in the picture below.
Thank you all in advance for your valuable feedback and advice!
I'm not one of the tailors, so I couldn't tell you how to fix these issues, but here's what I see:
On the positive, the back looks pretty clean
- Lapels don't make a clean line from collar to button
- Button is too high
- Skirt is too short
- Sleeves are too short
- Sleeves are buckling at the shoulder
Hi, I am currently in the process of losing weight. I have 5 bespoke suits and I am worried I will lose to much weight in the shoulders/arms. If I do, is it possible for my tailor to recut the shoulders? I am not worried to much about the stomach I know they will be able to take it in/taper it on the sides. I'm hoping to not have to build a lot of shoulder muscles as I already have broad shoulders (I was a linebacker in high school). Thanks!
Things can always be re-cut to a smaller size by a skilled tailor. In theory, he could take a suit apart and re-make it as small as overall balance and pocket placement will allow, but since it will probably cost more than a new suit, it's impractical
There are some things that can't be done like raising armholes, but shoulders are not a problem if yours is a good tailor, just $$$.
