    Just purchased my first SS suit. It was the washington model in a 40s and it fit pretty well before any alterations. The next best fit was the napoli in a 38S but the upperwaist area and the sides were too tight. Does anyone have any experience letting out the side seams? Is there much back...

    I was looking at that exact suit but decided against it because I thought it might be too light. Looks great on you and for a summer wedding looks perfect! How do you find the mohair blend? I'm only about 5'8" and I was thinking 1.75 inch cuffs. Too big? I'm used to uncuffed but was looking...

    looking for MTM suit in Washington DC Area

    I had a feeling you would say them. They are highly recommended by most accounts. I'm glad you were happy with the work. Did he slim the pants or sleeves on you RLPL? Also, what does he charge for a custom suit? How many fittings? How do you compare his bepoke construction with other...

     Thanks for posting the pics. Were you 100% satisfied with the tux and alterations work? I think it looks pretty good but even with pictures it is hard to judge. Who's the tailor?
