I hate it when you go to all the trouble and then gain 5 lbs and nothing fits....for this reason I have gotten lazy about the tailor. But it does make a huge difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-made-it-to-the-tailor#post-2021099 Sun, 21 Apr 2019 15:11:28 +0000 anchie 2021099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My late FIL who was expert man suit tailor enjoyed making little tweaks and improvements on my clothes. I appreciate how this small changes can make everything looking and feeling so much better. Unfortunately, since he died all I did is shortening too long pants. Enjoy your better fitting items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-made-it-to-the-tailor#post-2021093 Sun, 21 Apr 2019 14:39:50 +0000 nemosmom 2021093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A great tailor is worth EVERY penny!

I always have that slightly virtuous feeling when I come back from the tailor, and a sense of relief at having sorted things out.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-made-it-to-the-tailor#post-2021055 Sun, 21 Apr 2019 07:25:29 +0000 rachylou 2021055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Well done! I’m very bad these days about getting to the tailor. It’s sorta a transportation trauma... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-made-it-to-the-tailor#post-2021049 Sun, 21 Apr 2019 02:43:58 +0000 Gretchen 2021049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>....And I remembered why this is such a good idea. </p> <p>It’s so great to have someone look at clothes and adjust to fit all over. 1 pair of pants needed major help - not just in the waist, but thru the entire hip line, and we decided to sew the pockets shut so they won’t gap after alteration. </p> <p>She also is going to perform major surgery on 2 Boden dresses from last season - I liked them but they never felt “right”. After seeing her nip and tuck at the shoulders, bustline, center back and waistline, it’s clear that the problem was fit. </p> <p>All in - 5 pairs of pants, 2 skirts and 2 dresses. And all will be done in a week. Hooray! </p>
