Hi guys,
Thinking of getting a G2000 suit, but most of the fits are very unflattering. Can a tailor reduce the shoulderpads, and make the jacket look less like a box? I have a jacket from Jefferson which is more informal, and it has a nice 'waist' cutting on it. Thanks for your help! |

am looking for a decent tailor to alter a Banana Republic jacket and pants.
Would like it to be better fitted for the jacket and also make the pants more slim fitted. Don't really know where to go or how much this would costs. Any advice would be much appreciated. Cheers. |

Hey guys, would like to ask. How much does it roughly cost to alter a wool blazer? Looking to alter the length and probably adjust the shoulders a little.
Does anyone know how much Lords Tailor charge for alterations? How about cheaper-not-so-well-known tailors? |
