I need some advice. I had a suit made (M2M) in India a few months ago. When I went back to pick it up, the jacket was the only problem. I was given some baloney about them being unable to alter the jacket because my shoulders on my body were out of sync (they aren't). They said when I wear it I should position it so it looks like it fits well. I was leaving soon after so I just took the suit hoping I could have it altered elsewhere. The problem: one side of the jacket hangs lower slightly. When unfastened, the button hole is about one inch lower than the button. The lapels are also out of sync. One is lower than the other by the same amount. Thus, it shows one side is lower at the bottom of the jacket too. On the back of the suit the bottom is uniform.. Here is a (poor, but you get the idea) photo of the buttons:
What I would like to know is, is this an easy job for a tailor to fix? What are the procedures? Will it be expensive? Also behind the collar there are a few small lumps - it's not tight fitting. And behind the sleeves at the back there is a small lump on both sides. Should that be tight? The size of the jacket and length are ok. The sleeves also need shortening. Thanks for your help.
