Helpful to me – don’t need to see it being sewn, just needed to know how to
‘check’ or be sure that I understood the lining – was concerned I might
make it too tight inside if I just cut off sleeve and hemmed. good
information about measuring distance of last button to edge of sleeve and
about how close the buttons are to each other!
Not recommended in sport jackets? really? Please. approaching since a
global point of view and diacronic perspective neither of lapelled jackets
can be considered sporty anymore, on the contrary as men style evolves
(devolution?) a lapelled jacket will be considered inside the “formal”
category (with the exception of extremely casual jacket attached with many
ornaments and hoods worn by teens), so against the general opinion of many
style gurus, a suit (yes, a suit) is nowadays considered “formal” in a
global perspective, used in formal ceremonies as wedding even by the
grooms, including the elite of most countries. And more traditional options
like tuxedos are skipped or ignored more and more. So, the called “sport”
coats is scaling positions, and the refinements are welcome. So the caution
against a peaked lapel sport coat is senseless.
Note: contrary to what you might think I am distressed that some garments
like unrivaled tailcoats are being discarded from the male wardrobe. but at
some point I have to make a realistic assessment of what is happening.
I’ve learned so much from you thank you… I already own a few nice suits
and jackets but given your e books advice according to my height/body
composition I may have to invest into either altering quite a bit or
re-starting my wardrobe… Not sure what to do 🙂 I to wish I had found you
many moons ago though 🙂
Yes because she is a seamstress not an actual tailor, there is a
difference…..
