As we near the end of February and get closer to warmer and longer days it’s just about time we start thinking about what trends we’ll be seeing throughout spring. Fashion is always six months ahead, so we have a good idea of what to expect from spring/summer 2023 thanks to the fashion shows back in September.

Most people buy a suit from a store rather than getting it made to measure. While this is a perfectly fine option, everybody is unique, so when you go and get one ready made it’s unlikely that the suit is going to fit you perfectly. Having your suit tailored can make such a difference to how it looks on you, and make the suit look much more expensive than if you were to wear one that doesn’t quite fit right. This is where alterations come in! Your seamstress will be able to work with you to make your suit fit you perfectly.
We’ve put together this blog to let you know exactly what to expect from the process of getting your suit altered so next time you buy a suit you’ll feel more comfortable going to get it tailored.

We’ve put together this blog to give you some inspiration for fashion resolutions you can make for 2023.
