As a tailor, we often get fit related questions. You can visit a tailor because your measurements have changed or because you want a different fit. As a tailor, I think it is important to clearly explain to customers how sizes relate to styles and fits.

If you really want everything in your suit, jacket or trousers to fit 100% and with the details you want, you will have to have it tailor-made from scratch and visit a bespoke tailor.

If you look at the suit style of the past, it is a different fit than we see a lot now. The fit was wider, jackets longer, trousers were worn higher. Nowadays suits are cut much slimmer.
