A good tailor can do amazing things, but there are limits.
When it comes to tailoring, putting aside the quality of the suit (fused/glued canvas or not, among other things), the key thing you want as close to right from the start is the shoulders. Sleeve and jacket lengths are simple, neck and chest less so, but if the shoulder width is all wrong it’s a major undertaking to alter if it can even be done.
Every time with this guy. Venue shopping needs to stop. Everyone with an agenda is trying to file in his district for one reason, and it’s not fair and balanced justice.
