Tailored coats have pros and cons, with the fit being the most important factor. They can be expensive, but hide unattractive bulges and accentuate assets. They can also correct body shape and avoid fashion dilemmas.

In general, the pros and cons of buying a tailored coat come down to one factor: the fit. On the plus side, the fit addresses the specific shape of a person’s body, as each person is built with certain proportions and shape. For example, tailored coats can be especially tailored to broader shoulders, in order to prevent a buyer from choosing an oversized coat that may make her look scruffy rather than dressy. On a negative note, a tailored coat can become quite ill-fitting when a person loses or gains weight. Tailored clothing is sewn and designed specifically to fit a person with certain measurements, and when a person’s shape changes, the coat may not look as good as before.

One downside to buying a bespoke coat is that it can be more expensive than factory coats, as tailors ensure that each coat is personalized for each wearer. In terms of following a trend, a fashionable coat can be both a plus and a minus. It can make a user a trendsetter when used in a timely and appropriate manner. However, fashion trends can change very quickly, and a coat that was once in style can quickly become out of date. In order to reconcile this problem, stylists sometimes recommend that a wearer eschew the trend, stick to clean-cut and classic designs, and simply dress for her body shape.

Wearers who are on the heavier side will find that the advantages of having a tailored coat can outweigh its disadvantages. When worn correctly, the coat can hide unattractive bulges such as love handles and sagging arms. In addition to hiding “body issues,” a nice tailored coat can also accentuate one’s assets. A belted coat, for example, will further emphasize a person’s slim waist, while a thigh-length coat can show off a pair of shapely legs.

Another benefit of a tailored coat is that it can “correct” a person’s body shape and make them look more attractive. For example, someone who has a pear-shaped torso, or whose hips are wider than the shoulders, might choose tailored coats that are straight and feature detailing in the chest area to create the illusion of balance. On the other hand, an apple-shaped person may choose coats that have an A-line and avoid those that have extra details on the front. In general, a tailored coat avoids many fashion dilemmas, but buyers have to pay a higher price for it.
