Hi Paul, The guide line is three buttons showing on the shirt. You've only two, so it is a little high. But at the end of the day it's personal taste and if you like it, more power to you. Flare looks greats! Did you make the trousers too?

Yes. I spoke with the owner of theliningcompany and he assures me that you all can avail of a 10% discount.

Whether its possible or not, anything is possible. I did have one client years ago who had an incredibly flat back. Posture is measured as the distance from the nape of the neck to the prominence of the blades. If I understand you right, your asking if this could be 3/8" I would think it unlikely.

That's a fair question. Personally I never have moved the pocket placement when adding the figuration. But I wouldn't say it's wrong to do so.

Its been sent off to the printers. We'll wait and see what comes back.

1. Take 3/4" off both foreparts front edge. Alter breakline accordingly. 2. 1/4" won't make or break it. 3. Sleeve length is personal taste. But is worthwhile checking it against the shirts you intend to wear with it. Think a 1/4" of shirt sleeve showing. 4. I like the wider look, it's something I have been moving towards recently 5. Narrow the half back 1/2" and increase the back shoulder angle 1/2" too. 6. Pitch is certainly an issue here. Mark the pitch of the sleeve on the pocket mouth and match to it. My advise, do a rebaste and post those photos too.

Front balance looks good. What where your measurements?

The centre back neck seam is over suppressed. Let it out 1/4" on the double and adjust the neck sizing at the neck point.

Its looking much better. Try pinning out more of that fullness horizontal on the back waist and see if the balance needs adjusting.

The back pitch is irrelevant. The front pitch dictates the hang of the sleeve. Drop the back pitch and pass the fullness underneath

Good for you. The best of luck with it

Great first effort. The challenges you met didn't prevent you from finishing the project, so you should be very proud of yourself.

If you are planning to narrow the back, it needs to be a consistent amount through the entire back seam. Otherwise, you'll change the back suppression

No the front balance and back balance can be altered independently to each other. An easier way to explain this would be to raise the back chest line 2cm and then shorten the back hem 2cm and you have in turn shorten the back balance

Yes

Drop it all possible. In theory I suppose it does make the armhole deeper, but that doesn't mean it will sit lower. You are lacking length over the front chest.

Minimum I would say is 1 1/2" maximum 2 3/4"

Yes. If you have the cloth, recut the sleeves and the linings. Many Savile Row cutters always order another an extra length of cloth for sleeves. Reason being if they alter the armhole the sleeves maybe too narrow. It also saves time with having the cloth on hand.

I would do a rebaste. The canvassing looks good though.

Not too concerned about the shoulder seam placement. Mine are always a little further back off the centre of the shoulder. You do need to drop the front balance by 2cm. You can see at the side vent that it's opening here. This is usually caused by a short front balance
