Good morning,
I am looking for a formal business suit that is elegant but also contemporary. I have tried different RTW suits, among them I was able to get this beautiful Caruso for a very low price.
Although the fit isn’t terrible, there are certainly some problems on the back of the jacket and sleeves and in the back of the pants. I am not sure if this one is a size too big for me, but what usually happens if I size down in RTW is that my shoulders and chest are too big for the suit, with everything else being spot on.
I am aware the photos aren’t the best but I would like your opinion.
Photos:
The alterations I plan to do are the following: 1) shortening sleeves 2) add some waist suppression 3) clean the back of the jacket 4) clean the back of the pants 5) hem trousers.
I have some questions:
1) Do you believe the sizing is right?
2) Would you keep the suit and do the alterations or would you try something else?
Any constructive criticism is welcome.
