So two years ago, I bought a navy Hart Schaeffer Marx suit at Macy's for my medical school interviews. I think the fabric is pretty nice, but I've grown to realize that the jacket needs some waist suppression, and the pants are rather baggy on me.
So, two questions:
I plan on taking it to a fairly conservative shop here in New Orleans, Perlis. Do you think conservative men's stores even do alterations like waist suppression? I say this considering the rather boxy fit most men use for business dress.
Also, would you guys think that it is even worth trying to get the pants "slimmed down" in the fit through the legs? Is this ever done?
I imagine that it might just be cheaper to wait and get a new suit for residency interviews after next year.
What do you guys think?
Thanks!
