Custom suits are the standard these days, but not everyone can afford to visit an atelier and spend a bunch of money on a top quality suit that hugs every line of their body perfectly. For a custom look at an affordable price, get your old suit altered by a tailor. At 6 Avenue Tailor in New York City, they've been performing expert suit alterations for more than 30 years. The experienced tailors there are skilled at handling even the trickiest alterations, and are particularly well versed in suit alterations for the discerning urban man. 

To prove it, they offer a total satisfaction guarantee and 24-hour emergency turnarounds at competitive prices. For those who want to upgrade their suit game without buying an entirely new wardrobe, 6 Avenue Tailor has some suggestions that are sure to elicit nods of approval:

• Take In The Sleeves: Modernize an older suit jacket by adjusting the sleeves to fit closer to the body. The current trend is slim and trim, so pulling in those sleeves will give your suit a brand-new look.
• Add Vents: A classic center vent or a bolder side vent can help conceal weight gain or awkward fit issues by allowing the jacket to flow more smoothly over the butt.
• Trim The Torso: Just as the sleeves should fit closer to the body, the trunk of your jacket should also adhere closely to the lines of your chest. Pulling the jacket in as little as half an inch can make a huge difference between a stylish suit or a messy look.

For the best tailoring in the city, turn to 6 Avenue Tailor. In addition to suits, they are skilled at leather repairs and bridal alterations and offer standard tailoring services for all garments. To schedule a fitting, call 6 Avenue Tailor at (212) 593-1925, or visit them online.
