Tailoring question: I picked up a DBF grandad coat (this one: https://debonnefacture.fr/collectio...h-regional-wool-undyed-ecru-brown-herringbone) --
and even in a 44 EU, the arms are too long and a little too large on me. Noticeably more than intended.
Any concerns about getting it tailored? I've never cut on raglan sleeves and I'm not sure whether it would affect (1) shortening from the cuff or (2) slimming the sleeves. Or indeed whether there are other challenges about the DBF granddad coat that would make me think twice about tailoring.
Thanks much!
