I found this last week at a thrift store. It's like new. I haven't had it out to the tailor yet but I have a few quibbles with the fit. Any feedback, advice, praise or ridicule would be welcome. (apologies in advance for the weird shirt collar and blurry 3rd pic. I'm working on it!)

Quick look...Very impressive! I would not mess with the shoulders, they are a little large and padded. Leave them alone, you are already ahead of the curve. Press the sleeves to see if it hangs better and to determine length.
I cant determine if the pants fit.

Regards.

the waist looks like it could be brought in, and the back looks the same.

other then that, not a bad find!

A little waist suppression, sleeve and jacket length look pretty good. Double check the break on the slacks since no photo was included.
