>got a tweed jacket at a secondhand store >is absolutely one full size too bigIs making it size smaller an easy enough job for a tailor? How much should it probably cost?
>>18552934It's over. Why didn't you try it on before buying it?
If it's just too wide around the waist, that's easy.If the sleeves don't sit right for your shoulders, or are too wide, discard it. You'd have to basically re-do the whole thing.
>>18552939Yeah, the shoulders are a touch too wide, and the waist is too big too. I think the 0.5x lens makes it look better than it actually does IRL but here’s a pic>>18552938One of the staff basically spent 30 minutes bringing me different clothes, I felt I had to buy something. I did cop the shirt underneath the blazer as well
>>18552934Depends, maybe $50-100
You can wear a tweed blazer somewhat oversized. Live a little.A relaxed fit can look great, especially if you wear it open and rest the jacket on your arms, with your hand(s) either in your pockets or behind your back. Folded up sleeves to reveal layers underneath can also be a good look if they're too long. Just make sure the rest of your outfit is well put-together such that it's obvious you have an idea as to what you're doing and didn't just throw on your father's jacket.Of course, people in the know would immediately be able to tell that the jacket doesn't fit perfectly, but 90+% of people have no real clue and don't really care. And even among people that know only the spergs can't appreciate something that looks good only because it doesn't conform to tailoring norms (which aren't so rigid anyway). If you have outfits you think it looks good in, wear it. Put a chunky pullover underneath to fill it out more, which is one reason why owning an oversized jacket or two is borderline mandatory for winter anyway, as they allow you to wear thick wool clothing without looking like the michelin man.Although if you have someone in your family or friend circle that it would fit better, it'd make for a great gift on the right occasion.Separate advice: If you work out, you'd eventually fill it out better, especially in the shoulders, and judging from your pudgy neckline you could definitely stand to get into better shape.
>>18552941Tragic.
>>18552934No, you're better off lifting weights and going up a size lmao
>>18552941I've never seen a waist that tight with pants that loose
>>18552941Brutal honesty: the colour/pattern/cut combination of this outfit is horrible. Just sell the jacket and shirt on Vinted or whatever your local equivalent is. It's not working for you. I'd say bin the trousers, too; they're some sickly shade of grey.
>>18553023You can see this is a fitting room right? Are you retarded?
>>18553029What are you on about? If you're OP, you're incapable of communicating effectively. If you're not OP, you're a braindead ape who can't read a 10 post thread, so just fuck off.
>>18553034Based retard
>>18552934If the shoulders don't fit you're fucked You can shorten the sleeves and take in the torso, but it the shoulders are too big it's over. To make shoulders smaller you have to take the jacket apart and it's more trouble than it's worth.
>>18553041Or op could just work out and stop looking like this >>18552941
>>18552941That would be a perfectly fitting jacket if styled late 80s/early 90s.Burn the ill-fitting pants (the rise is the only good thing about them) and the shirt, replace them with black or khaki trousers and you're good to go.
>>18552941I think the jacket could work with a white shirt and dark brown chords
>>18553034>>18553023>>18553073That guy wasn’t me, the pants were also from the staff but yes, too big. I was just wearing all three things at once, not making it an outfit
>>18552941why do you look like that
>>18553344Post fit then

>>18552934>Is making it size smaller an easy enough job for a tailor?For a tailor worth their salt, it shouldn't be hard if you don't have fucked up body proportions. >How much should it probably cost?Depends on the tailor and what surrounding shops charge. Even by how much they like you.
>>18553823Coat too shortJacket too slim, button stance too high
