Hi, I am new to this and this is my first post. I apologize for any amount of ignorance I may have, as I have just received my MTM suit (which is also my first suit to own.) from Black Lapel. And second, for anything unprofessional like wrinkles, I just took it out of the box and rushed into putting it on with excitement.
I will apologize again for bad lighting in the pictures.
As of now I want to suppress the waist by 0.50” since it feels a little roomy, maybe the chest too. I have a few concerns. There is a minor collar roll on the back and the lapels do not lie properly/flat on chest. What is the cause of these issues and how do you fix them? Is it because of the shoulders or chest?
Do you guys think the shoulder is too wide? The jacket shoulder size is measure at 18”. I have wide shoulder for my height and I would like it to be a little bit narrower if possible, maybe take 0.25” off on both side unless you guys think it’s good. I am 5’6, 139 pounds if that matters.
My other concern is that there is a gap between the vest and the dress shirt collar, how does one fix that? What should I tell the services at black lapel to fix the gap and these other issues? Other than that I think it fits pretty well imo. Also is my button stance okay? Should it be lower? Let me know what you guys think.
Received a suit from Black Lapel MTM. How does it fit ? Please Critique
