Hey guys,
So I am thinking about thrifting a Balmacaan coat, sorry if I use the wrong term, pics attached below (Image 1) to illustrate what kind of coat I'm talking about. Though the torso measurements fit me nicely (only hand length alteration needed), I'm still a bit hesitate to acquire the piece, because it's not the kind of style that I like (coats with lapels). But considering that its made of Loro Piana fabric with awesome pattern and color (Image 2), and it's only (roughly) $20, it really is a bargain.
So the question is, since I (and my body) am not a fan of Balmacaan coat, is it possible to have this coat altered to a Single Breasted with (9-11cm wide) lapels? Thanks you guys so much, and I hope that you have a nice day!
