Michael went in for his second suit fitting this week. I think he managed to drive the tailors a little bit crazy trying to figure out what was wrong with the lapel/shoulder/chest area, but the important thing is that he left very happy with his suit.
The fabric feels amazing.
On the pants, the seat needed to be enlarged a little and the length in the back taken out a little. We debated for a while, but decided the waist would be okay as it is. It's very fitted though - no more chips for Michael for a while!
On the jacket, the sleeve lengths were perfect, the length of the jacket perfect, the pocket and button and lapel placement all perfect.
It took a while to figure out what was bothering Michael on the chest and lapels but then the tailors took the sleeves off and adjusted the armpit and miraculously fixed the issue. Now we just have to wait and see if they have fixed the trickiest and most elusive issue of them all - the roll in the upper back and center shoulder area.
So far we are pretty happy with W.W.Chan.
The tailoring appointments are kind of fun for me -- watching the two men dress Michael and fuss over him is like watching a modern day Asian rendition of Downtown Abbey. See, e.g.:
Next fitting in two weeks.
