How much should I expect to pay a competent tailor to get the torso tapered and sleeves narrowed on a dress shirt?

What makes a collar fold and fall down just over the button.
Do you iron by hand? I think this has to do with how the shirt is pressed, not by any wear to the shirt itself. I always have this issue with shirts that I have cleaned at our local dry cleaner, but if I iron them myself I can keep that bit of collar nice and stiff.
For a professional job interview (associate attorney position), all other things being equal, would you wear a pinstriped or solid suit?
I go back and forth, but generally end up doing my own ironing. (The cleaners are just too far for regular work like shirts) It's not that I can't press it nice and crisp, but that the interfacing or whatever makes it stiff inside has had a crease worn into it and no amount of pressing will keep it propped back up.
What causes the horizontal bunching at the chest just beyond the armpits, as seen in the shirt below?
Spotted this trench coat with couple of holes in it in a vintage shop. Is it possible to sew or somehow repair them/make them less visible?
