Hello,
This is my first post on the style forum. I'm very new to suits and just bought my first one, so I'll admit I'm inexperienced. I'm 5'9, have a size 44 chest, but require a 46 size jacket for my shoulders to fit. My pant size is around 36-37, and I have a pretty athletic build.
I bought a lower end 100% wool suit and brought it to a tailor near me that had received great reviews online. However, I now have the suit back and I think it looks terrible. The jacket has a very obvious hourglass shape that doesnt seem to mach my dimensions. I brought it back to the tailor the next day to ask about taking more in on the bottom of the jacket, and he told me that the jacket wouldn't fall correctly if any more was taken in.
So, am I going crazy or does this suit look terrible. I've attached pictures so that you guys can have a look. I feel like I've wasted alot of money on a suit that wasn't that nice to begin with. The cost of tailoring was 10 dollars more than what the suit cost.
Thank you in advance for any input
