usually side vents that gap do so because of either of two things. 1. the back is too long. 2. the hip is too tight. that strap is a poor solution for that gaping. this is separate from the front problem. the front shoulder is likely too crooked. the solution is to shift the front shoulder outward.

to help understand. go to ask andy, go on search, ask for cutting a low shoulder. scroll down to that title.

i do think that schneidergott is right. its not the jacket its your shoulder. that right is lower, when you are fresh and feeling strong you stand straight. when you are tired that right shoulder sags. i do the same when i am fresh i stand erect. when i am tired i am stooped. i have two different po...

there is no law to consult concerning titles in the tailoring industry. if you deal with a tailor working by himself. he is the designer-pattern maker-fitter-cutter- tryon maker-pant maker-vest maker-the bushel man-the sales man-the manager-he collects the money-and from that pays the bills. if he i...

thank you for the interesting pictures. is that from a students text book?
may i also ask. is it customary in germany only, to sew through the edge of the tape when sewing the facing on the edge? or is this customary in all of europe.

anything new feels new and different.

great tailoring. beautiful pattern matching.

go with tropicals, flannel is too warm for summer.
