    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    At 5'4" this jacket is not too short. Your already relatively shirt height can organically accept a jacket with shorter proportion. Proportions that if placed on a taller man would evidently be too short. In other words, relax on official rules. It isn't so short that it shows your seat like a...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    I'm commenting on this because the bulk of my business is MTM so I have a few things I can say about this and MTM in general... Something is off with the seat shape and/or hip posture. Or a combination of the two. you need to talk to your tailor or seller and determine what the cause might be...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    If a person has forward shoulders, it means their shoulders pitch forward as if hunched over. Backward shoulders is the opposite in which a person seems to hold their shoulders as if puffing out their chest. When shoulders are forward in a jacket, there is usually a pinch felt at the front part...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    It's not at all common policy. On the MTM side of things, there's always enough margin to cover for errors that may result in remake. Or there should be. If I don't have to remake, it shows as income and is recorded as such. If I do have to remake, I simply write it off as an expense or file...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    Been awhile since I've posted here, but the poster with the wrinkles at the upper back in his first photo made it obvious to me that the tailor took in the jacket at the CB seam. The wrinkles were a result of tightness and shortness being created over the blades from taking in the CB seam...

    The Tailors' Thread: Fit Feedback and Alteration Suggestions

    ITG...For MTM, this looks good. Front balance may be a bit short but there is no lapel gaping or severe vent splits due to back being too long. The most obvious signs are that the quarters are too closed. It's not something you can fix with alterations. For the next suit, have the tailor the...
