I am so glad I watched this before I started poking at the seams around the shoulders. My blazer has short sleeves, and I found my opening at the hem. Not even three inches of a window, but the shoulder pads came out so easily. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I thrifted an insane vintage purple suede blazer last night and I was ready to tear it all apart to take off the most ginormous shoulder pads ever! Your video made it super easy! 💜
Thank you so much, perfect timing! I want to wear my old blazer that I’ve had since the 90’s because it’s warm wool but the pads look ridiculous so I thought I would google how to remove and there you are! The same EXACT Lauren blazer (although mine is camel)! Same process as yours & looks fabulous! I can now wear my fav blazer that’s been sitting for 25 years!🎉
You are so welcome! HOW COOL! It's the same one!! That is just crazy. I love it. I'm happy you can be confident and wear it again. :)
OMG! YOu're a life saver! I have this plaid blazer with insane padding for over a year but didn't wear it because of the giant shoulder pads!!! Now that I removed them, I'm happy to report I'm wearing the blazer for the first time! Thank you for this tutorial!
I'm so glad the tutorial helped you finally rock that blazer!
thank you for disclosing the secret location of that last seam!! i would so love more alteration videos
Thank you for watching. More alterations videos are coming this week!
Wow! Thank you so much for making this video!! I avoid buying blazers I like just because of the gigantic shoulder pads, but I will definitely try this! This is pure gold!!!!
I feel you! I dislike the big shoulder pads too. Thank you for watching.
This was SUCH a helpful and informative video! I'm grateful yours was the first one recommended in my search! Very easy to follow and I'm super happy with my results! I also happen to be working on a ralph lauren blazer so I feel like this video was made for me 😆❤
I’m *Sew* glad this was the first tutorial to pop up when I googled it! Clear video with concise instructions! Thanks!
Very welcome. Thank you for watching :)
Aww, your after-photo is so adorable 😊
Thank you 😊
🙏 This video was a great help. I’m sure you saved me from a lot of trouble and I got a nice result. 👍🥰
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled that the video was able to help you and that you achieved a nice result. Your support means the world to me!
This was so helpful, thank you!! I would have never known about that hidden seam on the inside otherwise!
I'm glad you found it helpful! It's always great to discover those hidden details.
Thank you SO much for sharing. Crafty girl!
Thanks for watching!
They used to attach the shoulder pads outside of the lining. Much easier to remove
That would be sooo much easier to remove!
You’re so cute ♥️ this was so helpful
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you found the video helpful.
What a great video and the timing couldn’t be better. I have been downsizing, and I was going through clothes hanging in my attic yesterday. I found five great suits I wore when I was working. I am now retired, so no need for suits! But there are two suits 😅that I would like to keep. Shoulder pads need to come out! So, your method should work perfectly! Now I have to find out whether or not it makes financial sense to have the pants altered (too big), or just keep the jackets. Thanks much!
I love that you are upcycling your past looks 👏
Thank you sensei ! ❤
My pleasure!
I just did this with a coat! Looks sooo much better now thak youuuuuu
I'm so glad the coat makeover worked for you! It's amazing what a small change can do, right?
@@SewAnastasia yes, it looks much more "approachable" now and easier to style more casually, i know I will get a lot more wear out of it now! Thank youuuuu
Thanks ❤
Welcome.
That’s amazing! Thank you 😊
Welcome 🤗
But I was hoping to use mine for the 80s Halloween party... hahaha another great video Anastasia!
@@ecmproductions11 lol do it!!! Iv been collecting mine for years & want to make a crazy skirt with them one day.
This is exactly what I needed! I just found an old suit jacket with pads and one of them just doesn't look right. Like it's positioned wrong or they used the wrong one and it shows though a bit lumpy from the outside. I was scared by the fact that it's inside of the lining. I used to always take out shoulder pads back in the day for those easy-to remove ones because I already have wide straight-out shoulders and don't care for any more enhancement. A doctor once asked if I was a swimmer and that was a big "no" for this couch potato.
Ha. I’m glad you are going to take them out. It sounds like it will be a better fit for you.
I ❤ this
☺️
Thanks a lot ! I bought this pretty blazer but it had crazy huge shoulder pads haha. Do you have a tutorial to re adjust the shoulders/sleeves ?
Yeah I do have some videos where I do that or at least talk about it.You will need to take it the shoulder seam and possibly take in. the sleeve but you might be able to just ease it back in. Check out this video. ruclips.net/video/GHaFC_5NTw8/видео.htmlsi=qZK28FvPLPLN1adk
@@SewAnastasia thanks so much! I'll have a look at it!
Thank you for this! Do you have a video already of what you described as the "more work to do" to take in the shoulder after thick shoulder pads? I have a blazer that I love and got a great deal on, but it is both a little big in the shoulders and has big should pads, so I'm on the hunt for a parsimonious solution.
I think I go over it in this video. I have a few other blazer videos too. How To Tailor (Take In) The Shoulders On A Jacket Or Blazer | Sew Anastasia

@@SewAnastasia thank you!
Hi Anastasia! Guy who's learning to tailor at age 60 here! I love your videos and your teaching style! First attempt (on a practice coat) to take in the shoulders on a mens sport coat. I'm having an issue with missed stiches when sewing though the multiple layers of fabric and padding (reattaching top of sleeve to shoulder). Is there a special needle or thread you recommend? Just using a new all purpose needle and polyester thread. Thanks so much! I lost weight and got in shape, so this is a priority! :)
Hi 👋 It’s possible your machine can’t handle the layers. What kind of machine are you using?
New Brother 371SD. It doesn't seem to be struggling at all here. In fact, I've gone through five layers of denim. No problem
@@gary1739 Then I would suggest trying some different needles & new thread.
Apparently my shoulder pads have been sewn in under the lining so the flipping didn’t reveal them. Is that typical?
The shoulder pads should be under the lining. They where is this demo too. Thats why you need to seam rip the seam & get to the inside of the jacket.
I tried to get rid of mine by myself and i opened it from the shoulder seam, is it ruined now?
No but you should turn it inside out & sew back the shoulder seam.
if im remove Shoulder Pads of true to size blazer will it look better?
That’s up to you & your style & your shape.
@@SewAnastasiathanks, it's realy realy looks better
@@Restrainttt. excellent
I can't find the protruding seam line 😭

You are adorbs!! Perfect timing for this. I purchased a beautiful blazer years ago but haven't worn it b/c of the shoulder pads. I will give this a try.
