Thrifted a blazer today which I've already bragged about in the Thrift Store thread, but now I'm wondering how to make it fit. I'm going to be taking it to a tailor soon, but I want to be somewhat educated beforehand because I know my mom is going to try to talk me out of any alteration for fear of me growing out of them (I'm 16) and because I don't really trust a small town Arkansas tailor to tell me how my clothes should fit. I trust you guys
Anyway, I've got two related questions:
1) Can a tailor slim the sleeves on a blazer? I haven't been able to find much about this on the forum, which worries me because I thought it would be a pretty standard alteration. Is it not?
2) Newbie question here, but if I get the sleeves slimmed along with some waist suppression, How much should I expect to pay? Is this possible for under $50?
Ok, thanks for reading (and hopefully answering). Help set a young wayward teenager on the right path toward sartorial excellence
