Alteration for Tall People

I didn’t do much for most of my life and I am almost 30, so I have a hunchback posture. Looks like kyphosis but it’s not diagnosed

Thank you thank you 🙏 strength training is a new addition and I can be more rigorous about stretching so I hope it helps

Alteration for Tall People

I think 31 waist has been the closest fit but it’s usually snug in the hips then. Even then, I can pull the waist pretty good, so shirts don’t stay tucked

Alteration for Tall People

I figured the best course of action is to buy stuff a size big and bring it to someone

Truth is nothing is really close to my measurements out of the things I like, at least from my research, hence my issue haha

Maybe more “street” than actual workwear

Alteration for Tall People

Thanks so much for the advice, I’ll look into those brands as far as ready to wear. I didn’t mean suiting so much, I actually ideally would just wear casual stuff I’m interested in but make it fit. Say like a denim jacket and some work pants. But I know a lot of tailors are old school and suiting is what they know. Kind of why I had limitations a tailor might have in mind haha. Kinda off topic but what did you incorporate to help your posture? Right now I do some strength training 3x per week and stretches

I do wear an undershirt. I've tried tucking into my underwear too (heard that as a tip lol)

dress shirts - tall and skinny

I haven't tried every pair of high rise or anything haha but I specifically sought out high rise cut to do that and I just end up having to bunch the pants to my waist.. wish I had a good pic to illustrate

A belt just makes my pants bunch up and hurts my hip bones if that makes sense

dress shirts - tall and skinny

I’ve tried it but my pants are a bit big on my waist, maybe by an inch, so it just comes untucked. I lost a lot of weight fast last year

Also, I only wear pants with higher rise than average already. Not total high rise since those are hard to find but more than normal

Thanks. Anyone have a pic reference of how much billowing someone skinny should expect? Sometimes the torso area on a shirt or 2 that I have looks ok tucked, then in the back it looks like a giant poof
