Hi All,
I have had a new suit's jacket sleeves altered so the length is to the hinge of my wrist - just to the end of my wrist bone (which from my reading is the correct length)
I'm finding it very difficult to get shirt sleeves altered to the right length to fit this though, and remain comfortable (the shirt sleeve pulls on a shirt and feels restrictive on one ive had shortened quite alot).
Currently about 3/4" of shirt sleeve shows now, although these shirt sleeves have been altered too.
Advice please!
How do you get the jacket altered and the shirt sleeves to match so 1/3 inch of shirt cuff shows?
Is about 3/4" cuff showing a disaster, or am I being neurotic
(more cuff showing being fashionable now anyway)
