Jacket proportions
A structured tweed blazer makes the key balance points easy to see: shoulder line, lapels, button position, body length and sleeve length.

A suit is a collection of carefully balanced pieces. These real Openfit examples show the jacket shapes, sleeves, pockets, waistbands and trouser proportions we assess when discussing an alteration. They are examples of garments and fittings—not staged before-and-after images.
Jacket body and sleeves
Close detail of a wool jacket, showing the pocket placement and clean sleeve-to-body relationship considered during a fitting.
Finished edges and detail
Contrast piping and a defined lapel show why jacket shortening or sleeve work must preserve the original construction and finish.
Structured outerwear
Coats and longer jackets need proportion across the shoulders, body, sleeves, hem and pockets—not just a simple length change.
Trouser shape and finish
Different trouser fabrics and shapes require different approaches to the hem, waistband, crease and leg line.
Fitting the whole outfit
We assess jacket and trouser balance together so the finished suit looks intentional when standing, moving and sitting.
Jacket construction
A close view of a distinctive jacket shows the collar, lapels, seams and sleeve shape we consider when fitting or reshaping a jacket.
Full suit fitting
Jacket length, sleeve position, trouser rise and leg line all work together when a full suit is fitted.
Trouser leg and hem
A trouser fitting checks the leg line, seat, length and finishing so the garment hangs cleanly when worn.
