Malaysian parents. They always ask you to buy a size larger. Man, I have had to shake off this habit when I started changing my style. Now, all my clothings are so damn well fitted.
Good advise. If you have not done so you should do a video on how to store a suit. I do not wear suits often and the other day I pulled my suit out of the closet and a moth destroyed the suit. It was in a garment bag too. I had to get a new suit. I now have a better garment bag with a cedar hanger and cedar blocks in my closet.
A very pleasant presentation and very professional!
Nobody provides any hacks for big belly fat guys 😢 how to loosen or enlarge jackets & pants that were stiched with good enuf margin left for potential weight gain?
I'm finally graduating from college this saturday. I bought a suit for the occasion last year when I was actually supposed to do it. but I have like no idea on sizes, and my pants were simply too tight. and the jacket AND waistcoat is a bit too tight because I may have gained a few pounds. the jacket is slim fit but it still fits well. he's right, if it is a formal event you can't really do much with a formal suit. like I am too lazy to go look for anything else and I have to realize that taking my stuff to the cleaners may take some time. SO for last resort, I can either just wear a basic blue dress shirt which is classic fit and fits GOOD, with a black tie and a nice belt, OR just keep the jacket and just not button it up. my combination is a navy blue suit with a light blue dress shirt. ODDLY enough i tried going to H&M and the associate told me that there were no more suits because people bought them for graduation or funerals. YIKES.
I just got a sport coat tailored and it was only taken in at the sides but is now too tight through the back. When I do the handshake test and hug test now it really pulls against my back. I think the armholes are too high. So the question I have is if I bring the jacket back to the tailor, could she let out the jacket some more or would she have cut off that material and thrown it away? Also is there an easy way for me to check to see if that fabric is still there by looking under the lining?
thank you
thanks this is what I looking for :) I will try to have a tailor to fix it for me
Thanks Sir. I just bought a tm lewin in 36 slim, and noticed the middle is pulling when buttoned. Will find a tailor in Sydney. Thanks again.
First time here Antonio, must say very classy and informative channel cheers
Great video!!
I happened on this video looking for something else, but it was a great watch! You're a great speaker, funny, and super good looking. LOVE the Grimace reference, I always thought he was an eggplant, but considering it's McDonalds I doubt it haha.
Antonio, should a suit jacket vs a blazer fit differently? I find a 44 R looks better on me but I can't raise my arms or move them past my chest. A 46 R looks a little big on me. What should I go with? I need to lose weight, but wast size only a little (36 currently want to be a 34 at least or a 32 at the most). Chest I am a size Large and don't want to be a medium or a XL.
geez get to the point already!
Usually, yes. The easiest alteration is to tighten the wrist and cuffs up a bit. Narrowing the whole sleeve will be much more involved, and anything that involves adjusting the actual armscye (the hole where the sleeve meets the body of the jacket) is a fairly major alteration. At that point you're basically reconstructing the shape of the whole jacket!
hello, when I am wearing my suit buttoned, I noticed a chest opened especially when I place both of my hands at the back. Is it normal or my suit is just too small in the chest area?
SLIM FIT suits are for slim-skinny people. If you have a belly then u need a classic fit suit and have the alteration ppl adjust pants and jacket accordingly.....
Well said
what about the back of the suit?
Thanks God bless.
Lol I didn't think people worked out in suit jackets! Good video
LOL I love your joke at 1:58. :-)
She shoot's !
i've bought a tommy hilfiger coat but it's a bit roomy in my back while my shoulders and my sleeves fit very well. is it possible to tighten in a little bit on the back side?
So if my jacket is a tad tight in the shoulders and a little loose in the midsection, can I do the same thing? (Let out the shoulders)
Can i get a 42r tailored to be a 38r? Thanks
Why do men listen to their mothers regarding suits. Ask a tailor or another male
a tib - or ask you cause you’re fine asf
I know this is a video from 2012 but I was wondering if you know super tight suits are in style now in 2019? Half the people I know who are also wealthy. They tailor their suits so tight, there is a big X stretch around the stomach area. This is so crazy that I'm also starting to do it. It don't even look nice but people want tighter and tighter now in NYC.
my shoulders are narrow. plz help me
This is completely irrelevant but when he said subscribe to the channel, the subscribe button showed an animation around its edges.
The video is pretty helpful as well
Is it ok to just move the jacket buttons over a small amount to give more room?
I got over 40 years experience of man suits tailoring, if you gonna buy a suit or you in between sizes buy a bigger size it’s easy to take in the side seam than let out the side seam down the line you might need more room in a month or two never know the weight is change it all the time.
Hi Sir. I bought twho suits. They are both slightly tight. Can I alter them to have more room(enlarge a bit)
The bottom of my jacket does not cover the bottom curve of my buttock and it looks very awkward, what can be done regarding the problem? It's quite frustrating considering it's my first suit jacket. :(
Can't lift my arms even to drink anything in any suit even after alternated to the standard look
why?
Those damn Mum's that want you to look like a Potatoe Bag :D
hahaha...I know right
Entertainers/musicians who wear suits on stage, often need a lot of movement/work-out.
Is it possible to adjust my two-button suit's button placement from low to higher? Its making me look short... Thanx for any advice.
antonc108 you're more than welcome to move the buttons... but you can't move a hole... can you?
hahaaaaa! I cant knock out 30 pullups in a suit jacket lol thats funny
uh... I'm pretty sure that's the only time I wrote that. Maybe you know more about me than myself but who knows...
Those divots in the shoulders drove me crazy during this video.....
+Gerrid Have you seen my latest videos? :)
I did not look at the dates. Just noticed the divots which drives me crazy lol.
+Gerrid All of my slim fit suits have slight divots, and I wear them proudly. Women don't seem to mind them. I think the divots come from having a good body.
Exactly! Divots come with the territory of having great arms and shoulders!
+charles montgomery - No, divots often occur because a person's arms are too wide for the armhole so the armhole distorts, becomes wider but also shorter in height hence the collapse in fabric. It has nothing to do with having a good body and everything to do with the jacket not fitting that person properly on the arms and shoulders.
99 times of 100 going up a size will correct this pretty serious issue. Yes, that will necessitate alterations elsewhere - waist taken in etc but it's worth it. There's nothing worse than a bad fitting suit on the shoulders. It completely ruins a suit.
Dude, all you have done is confuse people more.
Main check, if you have your shirt/jacket on, pretend like you are showing off your guns with both arms, then bring your arms in that show off position together in the middle and if your elbows are not able to touch, then it is too small.
The most advice I can give to any man is this: stop being narcissistic and try being modest. I want to see cutting room scissors - not someone's mouth moving (again!)
Sorry.. rumples down the sleeves and a shoulder overhang??.. on the speaker here.. shows a suit thats too big for him.. cant really go by this.
Shoulders are usually the only thing you can't have altered.
That’s completely false. You can have the shoulders altered. I’ve had two blazers altered, both with the shoulders brought in.
best comment ever
what about arms? What if the arms are tight? Can it be expand?
Darren Lee no
Vintage Antonio.
Simple answer - buy a new one -_-
Quick add:
Know. Your. Body. Type.
Buying a suit is an honest process. Don't lie, it's not going to work well for you.
You know why guys buy Lululemon, super stretchy stuff now?
Because they're LYING. And it's not to anyone but themselves.
If you're not a slim fit, don't buy slim fit stuff.
Genuinely, be honest with yourself.
Maybe that's just not something you're ever going to do, and all I can say to that is.. good luck with Carhartt 🤷
Beg for support after you have given me advice, not before.
He himself is wearing an unfit suit
FARVA!!!
switched off once it was a sales pitch to start with.zzzzzzzz
You should say in the beginning that this is not a tutorial & that you are not going to actually "SHOW" how to make a blazer bigger ! Wasted my time 😠
this guy gives me a headache
