Shoulder Surgery
So, I continued doing what you should never really do to your suit and sportcoats: alter the shoulder. I have no regrets, as my vintage pieces are less square and way more comfortable to wear!

Tailoring a Suit from Goodwill
It’s not everyday that you find something cool at a thrift store. And its definitely not an easy task to make it wearable.
A Tailoring Experiment: Pleated Trousers
Now that we can agree that pleats are cool, it’s time to try them out. I noted in my previous article that it is difficult to obtain pleated pants with the necessary details (high rise, slim-straight). So when I was presented with an opportunity to try and tailor down some 1980’s baggy, double pleated pants, I took it. If it worked out, I may have found a way to get pleated pants at an affordable price! If not, I’ll be out a few bucks, but I know it can’t be done. Let’s find out!
