I guess this is a nice problem to have, but it's looming as an expensive one.
S1nce Christmas I have lost 12-13kg. I've lost 3 inches off my waist, 4 inches off my chest and 1 inch off my neck measurements.
As a consequence, most of my clothes fit me about as well as a clown suit. I work in a corporate environment so I need to have a full panoply of business wear, and am fast running out of options.
I have a lot of suits and jackets that I am most reluctant to part with and would happily alter if the degree of alterations would not end up ruining the suit. So I'm looking for some suggestions as to what would be the maximum you could take in a suit jacket, a pair of pants and a shirt before it would cease to be worthwhile. (I'm assuming virtually nothing for shirt collars; I'm resigned to writing my old shirts off).
TIA.
