Modus Operandi Sydney

Altering a size 42 suit down to a 39 is quite a significant adjustment. While minor alterations (like taking in the waist or adjusting sleeve length) are common, reducing a suit by three full sizes can be tricky. It may affect the overall fit, proportions, and structure of the jacket and trousers.

A skilled tailor might be able to achieve it, but at that point, it’s often better to start with the right size for a cleaner, more natural fit.

We’d love to help you find a suit that fits well from the start! Feel free to reach out at hello@modusoperandisydney.com.au, and we can guide you on the best options.

For a church wedding, a classic and timeless suit is always a great choice, depending on the level of formality:

• Traditional/Formal: A black, navy, or charcoal suit with a crisp white shirt and a tie or bow tie is a safe and sophisticated option. A three-piece suit adds an extra touch of elegance.
• Semi-Formal/Modern: A dark or neutral-toned suit (such as deep blue, grey, or even beige) paired with a coordinating tie works well, especially if the wedding has a more relaxed feel.
• Summer or Daytime Wedding: A lighter suit in beige, light grey, or soft blue is stylish and season-appropriate while still looking polished.

It’s wonderful that your son is excited to wear a black tux for the occasion! Given his upcoming surgery and recovery, comfort will be just as important as style.

Here are a few things to consider when fitting both your sons:

• Comfort & Mobility: Look for a soft, flexible fabric that allows ease of movement, especially for your eldest. A well-tailored but slightly relaxed fit may help accommodate any braces, casts, or additional needs during recovery.
• Adjustable Waistband: If trousers need to sit more comfortably due to limited mobility, an adjustable waistband or side tabs can help.
• Shoes & Accessories: Since he’ll be on crutches, ensure his shoes are comfortable and non-slip. A well-fitted tux jacket with a classic black bow tie will keep the look formal and polished.

While we’re based in Sydney, we can certainly help guide you in finding the right tux for both your boys. Feel free to reach out at hello@modusoperandisydney.com.au, and we’d be happy to assist! Wishing your son a smooth recovery and a fantastic event ahead.
