Frequently Asked Questions about Suit Alterations
Here are some of the most common questions we receive about Suit Alterations:
For your suit alterations appointment, it’s important to bring the right items to ensure the best fit and results. Start with the full suit, including the jacket, trousers, and waistcoat (if applicable), even if only one piece requires alteration, as this ensures proportional adjustments. Wearing a well-fitted dress shirt allows the tailor to assess sleeve and jacket length accurately, while bringing the shoes you plan to wear with the suit helps determine the correct trouser break. If you typically wear a belt, bring it along, especially for waist adjustments. Additionally, if you use specific undergarments like an undershirt or shapewear, wearing them during the fitting ensures a more precise fit.?
Most suits can be altered, but the extent of alterations depends on factors like seam allowance, fabric type, and suit construction. Bespoke and high-quality suits tend to have more allowance for adjustments than off-the-rack suits.
Yes, we frequently tailor suits purchased online to achieve the perfect fit. Since sizes can vary, professional alterations ensure a polished look.
Absolutely! Our expert tailors can taper trousers, take in the sides of a jacket, and adjust the sleeves for a sharper, more tailored silhouette.?
Yes, if there is enough seam allowance, a suit can be let out by a small amount, typically up to 1-2 inches. However, if more room is needed, additional fabric or creative tailoring solutions may be required.
