A suit off the rack rarely fits perfectly — the sleeves run long, the jacket boxes out at the waist, and the trousers need hemming. A good Dallas tailor adjusts sleeve and trouser length, takes in the jacket sides and back, and tapers the legs so the whole suit follows your shape. Shoulder changes are the exception: they're costly, so buy for the shoulders and tailor the rest.

Good to Know
Sleeve length, jacket waist (taking in the sides and center back), trouser hem and taper, and the seat are all routine. The one alteration to avoid is the shoulders — recutting them is expensive, so choose a jacket that fits the shoulders and let a Dallas tailor handle the rest.
Basic work like hemming trousers or shortening sleeves is inexpensive; taking in a jacket or tapering legs costs more because more seams are involved. The 6 Dallas tailors below give free quotes — bring the suit and wear your dress shoes for an accurate hem.
Simple hems and take-ins are often ready in a few days, but if you need a suit for an interview or wedding, give a Dallas tailor at least a week. Ask about rush service if your event is sooner.
