I was gonna make masks this week. Suddenly there's a dress shirt with pins in it on my table. I feel there may be a binge tailoring in my future. Great video as always. Appreciate the content, sir! It gives me something to aspire to and something to do with my kids. Now I just gotta get rid of this beach ball some body stuffed inside my shirt.
You are incredible, SD. I’ve been following since the early days, and I’m so happy to see how much your channel has grown, man. As a guy that is between 5’6 and 5’7, its basically IMPOSSIBLE to find even a simple t-shirt that fits me, lengthwise, without spending astronomical amounts of money on niche “short guy” brands. Can you please do a few more videos on how to shorten the length and/or sleeves of tees, casuals, and dress shirts? Hope you are safe in these trying times, my man. Thank you for all that you do.
I just done my very first dress shirt and I succeeded! It took me months to take this step but Stylish D. can take the credit here. Thank you. I am addicted.
SD man my GF is upset with you! Lol you got me in the doghouse, I binge tailored shirts all day and forgot to pick up groceries....But my clothes look amazing so thank you!
Thank you so much. I watched these videos last night, today I have just managed to adjust a baggy shirt I have been putting up with for ages. It worked perfectly. It's literally like a tailored shirt now!!!
Bruh! We are a lot alike from style to physical size (our measurements are nearly identical). I dig your energy and sense of humor as well. Thanks for taking the time to develop and post this content. I am about to buy a sewing machine and start tailoring my own clothes (sorry to my tailor). I'm looking forward to making darts! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this guide! I am tall and skinny so everything I wear makes me look like a cube. I just tailored my first shirt and it looks absolutely amazing on me. Looking forward to re-entering society looking fine.
For the straight stitch width: in some machines this dial can move the needle left and right subtlety. You can shift the needle to have very accurate top stitching. It makes it easy to use the same “landmark” when sewing. It’s very difficult to sew the same line 1 or 2 mm away from the last, so this feature makes it a no brainer. I hope that makes sense, just see how the needle shifts as you turn the dial
Hey SD, thanks for the great content. I have a few button down shirts that have shirt tails way too long to wear untucked. Can you do a vid on shortening shirt tails? Tks bro.
The question I have is how to sew at the hem of a button down shirt? Usually I find the original hem isn't the same shape on the front and back of the shirt, so if you narrow the width at all it looks misaligned and silly and even if you try to angle exactly into the corner you still end up with the same issue just less. I'm talking about shirts that you're not going to tuck in.
This is an older video so I am not sure if you will see this. I want to learn to sew like you and my mom has an old sewing machine that nobody uses. I want to get some confidence to learn it as I feel a bit intimidated and think I will screw up the shirts.
@@StylishDTailors I think I will get some crappy old shirts to try. I don't have a whole lot though because I donated a whole bunch of old clothes recently.
How do you get the line straight? I’ve followed your instructions, but the line always comes out uneven. I can’t figure out how to sew the curved line right… :(
@@StylishDTailors The new seem kept turning out wonky because I couldn't get the line right, but I got it now! I had to draw it with a pencil and go slow. Thanks!
Luckily the only thing I have to choose on my stitching machine is what type of stitch. The length and width are pre-selected. Otherwise! 🥴😵😵💫😕😟☹😳🥺😩😫😅
Zigzag stitch? Really? You've curled the edge too. The single row of straight lockstitch is the only thing holding that sholirt together. Why didn't you unstitch the hem and resew a flat felled seam?

Yea some time its hard for us short guys . But express sell good fitting shirts but maybe a little more on the expensive side
You make altering clothes easy. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Excellent instructions. Love your humor too

At a boy!!
Can’t wait for the darts!
High armholes are the best!!! So much more comfortable. That‘s why master tailors for suits are doing high armholes. Great video!
SD man my GF is upset with you! Lol you got me in the doghouse, I binge tailored shirts all day and forgot to pick up groceries....But my clothes look amazing so thank you!
😆😆😆
Love your videos. Thank you for repeating all the bits us novices forget / get confused about like which stitch, stitch length.
How didnt I find this channel earlier, the positive energy and explaining everything. Thank you!
Sweet, thanks for the info on the armpit stitch. 👍🏼
“Where did you get such a nice shirt?”
“Wali world, but I tailored it myself 😎”
Can confirm, this will get you laid.
True story!
Lol
Thank you so much. I watched these videos last night, today I have just managed to adjust a baggy shirt I have been putting up with for ages. It worked perfectly. It's literally like a tailored shirt now!!!
Awesome to hear! Wearing your first tailored dress shirt is honestly life changing!

I love your style and your videos.
Your tone is so happy, inspirational.
Thanks & Greetings from Munich, Tom.
Your videos are so entertaining and encouraging. I’m gonna start sewing for fun. 🤩
Thanks! I love your style! I can't wait to try out your tips.
Wow thank you so much! That was super generous of you!
Great videos. Nice to see you making them again. Keep them coming.
just found your channel youve changed my life basically
Awesome to hear! Tailoring is life changing I know!
Welcome back
Boom!
Thank you so much for this guide! I am tall and skinny so everything I wear makes me look like a cube. I just tailored my first shirt and it looks absolutely amazing on me. Looking forward to re-entering society looking fine.

My guy. Love your work 🙏🙏
Thanks!
@4:15, you just got another subscriber! LOL

Stop teasing us SD 😂. Waiting for Part 3 eagerly!
Guess what I'm editing as we speak?
I love the scary sewing-machine-face 😯😆
Brilliant!
Nice video

My man ❤️
You’re so entertaining
Always helpful🤦🏾♂️
Alright so do I need to buy a matching thread to every shirt I’m going to to tailor? (Just bought a sewing machine. It’s on it way 🤘🏼)
Nope, I used black thread on this shirt.
This is an older video so I am not sure if you will see this. I want to learn to sew like you and my mom has an old sewing machine that nobody uses. I want to get some confidence to learn it as I feel a bit intimidated and think I will screw up the shirts.
I mean you will screw up the first few, that’s what happens. But you learn fast trust me, you got this!!
@@StylishDTailors I think I will get some crappy old shirts to try. I don't have a whole lot though because I donated a whole bunch of old clothes recently.
you didnt explain how to measure. How do you know exactly where you are putting the pins?
I did, you have to experiment with the fit that you're looking for.
you are the best
usefull, thanks
You should really look into rolled seams.
Or French seams.
How do you get the line straight? I’ve followed your instructions, but the line always comes out uneven. I can’t figure out how to sew the curved line right… :(
What do you mean by uneven?
@@StylishDTailors The new seem kept turning out wonky because I couldn't get the line right, but I got it now! I had to draw it with a pencil and go slow. Thanks!
make a button up exclusive shirt that says on the pocket: NYHANYHANYHANYHANYHANYHANYHANYHA~
I meant 👍🏾
how to size the sholder if its too wide
Well...you don't unfortunately...
I like my women like I like my coffee
With creamer!
Where is the new Brother machine?
Funny you ask, got an awesome review coming up for it soon
For a really professional look, you could flat fell that seam
Very true, I made a video on that already, I should remake it soon...
I like my women like my coffee hot black and bitter.
Confused. You didn't sew it with the shirt inside out
No I did, sorry for the confusion!
Luckily the only thing I have to choose on my stitching machine is what type of stitch. The length and width are pre-selected. Otherwise! 🥴😵😵💫😕😟☹😳🥺😩😫😅
Boooo!!!!
I also like my teeth white.
I like my women like I like my teeth. I wish I had teeth
Zigzag stitch? Really? You've curled the edge too. The single row of straight lockstitch is the only thing holding that sholirt together. Why didn't you unstitch the hem and resew a flat felled seam?
Because a flat felled seam is difficult for beginners and I wanted to make this as easy as possible to do for people.
you are cute.
