Largest reasonable drop for RTW and MTM tailoring?
Hello! I have a 40 inch chest and 30 inch waist, though often get closer to 41/29 depending on the season. I understand standard drop between chest and waist measurements is 6. Is it reasonable for me to find a good suit that’s either off the rack or made to measure with these proportions? Any particular brands known for a muscular build?
(I’m also very short - 5’4 - with broad shoulders to add to the fun proportions)
Thanks!

Quite a lot of brands do drop 8 so worth double checking measurements and size charts.
I'm drop 10 and am generally fine with otr with a few adjustments. Most the bigger brands will sell trousers and jackets separately so you can just get the best ones for you.
Got it, thank you!
