I just obtained my suit from tip top the other day and I noticed this area on the lapel where it seemed like fabric was loose and frayed. It looks a little worse in real life. You can see some sort of white dot. it looks as if a small portion of the fabric was yanked out. Idk what to do. It's quite bothersome for me. Am i maybe just making to big of a deal out of it or is there anyway I can fix it? Your suggestions and opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

It could be. I just bought it and I regret not looking for issues at the beginning. Is there anyway it can be fixed?

Brand new? Still have the tags and the receipt? Return it or exchange it.

Is it a huge deal? Or would it still be okay to wear?
I'm not sure I can return it. It is tailored

I would bring them to a dry cleaner just to have a second opinion, but if this suits are brand new I would bring them back. I don't know how long were they waiting to be picked up by you, but that is not damage that happens in a day or two
