Hi, this is my first tailored shirt, I'd like to know your opinion about shoulder width, In general I feel good , but perhaps slightly wide at the waist.

Did you provide pics of yourself and fitted measures?

It has diagonal wrinkles on the breast due to have not done a pattern for your slopped shoulders.

Ha excess of fabric on the back scye as well.


You can add darts, is not as bad as others, is average to ok for what I see. ( I assume is low cost) if is from an expensive shirtmaker, he should have to fix some parts.

Arghh unfortunately I put the photos on the fly, I have not had time to iron today :)



It can make a great deal of difference in judging a garment. Suggest you do so and repost, at the moment it looks to be a tawdry rag.
