Repost from BHB: Tailor needed to fix FH's tux

My FFIL was nice enough to give my FH his tuxedo for our wedding. But it is a little big.

Can anyone recommend a really excellent tailor to fix FH's tuxedo?

TIA

I know of an AMZING tailor who used to be the head tailor for a major italian designer. The only issue is that he operates out of his house in Brooklyn, and is pricey. But if you want it done right this would be the man to see. If you want I can get you his information and you can call him. FM me if you are interested.

Thanks for the offer, but we actually decided to get FH a different tux. Unfortunately, FFIL's tux is made for a taller person, so even if it was tailored, it would not be inproportion to FH's body. For example, the lapels and pockets would be too low. It s*cks too, b/c the tux is BEAUTIFUL!

Thanks again.
