Hello everyone, I have recently gone through my closet looking for a interview suit sadly to find many don’t fit anymore. I’ve put on a little weight and where I was once a 36s (I’m 5’ 6” 150lb) now the chest on a few of my suits is popping up I’ve also heard people say the lapel is popping up...

Hi all! I have a few questions about the fits of a few Suitsupply Lazio jackets. Context is that it’s for my wedding, and will be part of a three piece suit that I want to be able to use for interviews, on the job, etc. in the future. In the pics I have a vest to mimic the vest I’ll have for...

Hi all, I just bought this aviator style brown leather jacket from Danier which I absolutely love. It's my first leather jacket purchase ever. However, the past couple days I've been trying to figure out if my sleeves are too long or not. I've heard a lot of conflicting opinions and I'm looking...

Hello all! I'm in the market for a fully tailored suit. I'm happy to splash 500-1,000 EUR on something that I can enjoy for years (some shirts too?). Fully canvassed, elegant and properly made. I'm not in a rush and would like to do this properly. I'm living in Brussels at the moment and...

I've started commuting from Frederick MD into DC recently, and it's clear that I need to update my wardrobe! (That's what I get for telecommuting the last seven years.) I grabbed some inexpensive OTR suits on various sales recently, and need to have them adjusted. The "tailors" in Frederick...

I have a pretty short inseam(around 27”), and so I have to get most of my pants cut. My calves are pretty average at 14” but my ankles are very skinny- 8.5”. My foot can go through an 11.5” hole at least. My problem is the leg opening is always too big. I don’t know how long to cut the pants...

Hello gentleman, For a couple of months now, I have been trying to bring a slice of the neapolitan sartoria culture to the BENELUX, by organising trunk shows in the BENELUX (Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxemburg), with Sartoria Cuomo Napoli and trousermaker Alberto Voglio. (These tailors are...

Hey all, I posted this question on reddit but was told it might do better here. I’m new, so if there’s a better forum/place to put this, I’d appreciate it. I received an email inviting me to a presentation being put on in the Los Angeles area, which is where I work. It’s going on from February...

Has anyone gone here for custom suits, or at least alterations? He has good reviews, was friendly and knowledgeable. From his website, I didn’t know he did bespoke, but he said he always has and is updating the website. He said he does two fittings, and does all the work himself. What concerned...

I just got my first ever tailor made suit from a local tailor and am pretty excited about it. However, I noticed the stitching on the collar seems a bit off (pics below, the stitching seems to be made by hand but looks a bit crooked) and I wasn't sure if that is expected or is it a mark of a bad...

Good morning everyone! I am currently on the search for a new tailor in the Orange County, NY area. While my current tailor is pretty good with my alterations, he seems very picky on what he will/will not work on. I am not looking to replace him, but rather have a back up tailor for small...

Hello All. I am new to these forums, and also new to wearing suits. Many of my google searching regarding suits have led me to these forums, and I thought I'd ask some questions here regarding suit tailoring. I purchased a 40S suit that fits me pretty well around the shoulders. However it is...

I've read older threads on this but wanted to ask members how many yards or meters of plain fabric I'd specifically need for a: 2-piece suit: 3-piece suit: Blazer: I'm 5'11" / 1.8 meters tall and relatively thin with a 30" waist. Some members in previous threads recommended as low as 3 yards...

I was wondering if anyone in the San Gabriel Valley Area has a good tailor they would recommend (particularly for darting shirts)?! Is it an "easy" job or can pretty much any tailor do a decent job with this?!

When you get your jeans tapered, what is your go to leg opening?

I have tried on everything at Suitsupply and finally settled on their Hartford suit. It was ordered in and as I was trying on the pants the salesperson tells me that there will be too much tailoring and that the pants won't look right once they have been taken that far in. The suit is a 40 and...

Let me preface this a bit. I understand the general concept and difference between a bespoke shirt and a MTM shirt. Basically, a bespoke shirt is on fully customized to my body and a pattern is made to cut the shirt to my body dimensions. A MTM shirt takes an existing pattern and then takes...
