Day 11/ RE Tailoring week.

It is a cold, dark and stormy monday. There was a trench coat added to this suit as I went dashing out the door. This suit was my fathers in the 1970's. I have had the trousers tailored for no break, and to suit my waist. I have also had the jacket's sleeves shortened slightly and the length shortened slightly. As you can tell, it is STILL a process. At the time, I did not really know anything about the waist of my coat or the leg openings of the trousers. That will come next. For now, as you see it, this picture will act as a sort of before picture. More of these suits in process pictures to come this week.
