Luxx Group Morning Suit Alterations

Key Morning Suit Alterations

• Sleeve Length – Should show ¼ to ½ inch of shirt cuff (like a dinner suit). 
• Waist Suppression – The coat should nip slightly at the waist but not restrict movement. 
• Tail Length – The tails should end just above the back of the knees (rarely altered unless bespoke). 
• Shoulders & Chest – Avoid major adjustments here; padding/structure is hard to modify. 

• Length – Should cover the waistband of the trousers but not overlap the tails. 
• Sides – Can be taken in or let out for a snug (not tight) fit. 
• Armholes – High-cut to prevent visibility under the coat. 

• Waist Height – Should sit at the natural waist (higher than modern suits). 
• No Belt Loops – Traditionally worn with braces (suspenders), so side adjusters may be added if needed. 
• Trouser Break – Slight or no break, with a clean drape (often slightly tapered but not skinny). 

• Peak Lapels – Should lie flat against the chest without gaping. 
• Shirt Collar – Ensure the morning coat’s collar sits neatly over your dress shirt.
