I've finally gathered the courage to post this, in hope of getting some help, so here it goes.
I'm 21 years old, but I'm only 174 cm tall and my weight is around 45-50 kg. Topman is the only one I know of who makes clothes (at least sweaters and outerwear) in my size (I have a 32" chest size). I know one option
is to buy clothing for children, but the proportions often ends up being wrong. Also, it's quite hard to find quality clothing for children. Naturally, I also have problems with trousers (I use 26-28"). I know that I can always get a tailor to taper the legs, but when every trouser I try on or buy ends up being way to loose around the seat, it's no use. This I experienced myself when I
ruined a "slim" pair of trousers from Incotex which was way to big for me. It was an expensive mistake, but now I've learned.
I've never been able to find a SC's or suit that fits and the only suit I got (size 34) is to big and the shoulders too wide, even after a trip to the tailor. I've e-mailed Gordon Yao and plan on getting some suits and SC's from them when they travel to London as I can't see any other way to get something that fits. But seeing as It's a little bit over my budget I'd be really happy if I could buy a suit or a SC OTR. As a guy who's very interested in classic mens style I use a lot of time and energy on trying to find something that fits, but in most cases I end up with clothes that are too big for me. Obviously, I'm starting to get extremely frustrated.
Just so it's clear, there's no point in telling me to eat and gain weight because it's health related and sadly not something I have any control over.
So, my question is this: Who else makes clothes in such small sizes and preferably with a slim fit? Is there any hope for me and other people in my position?
