Short answer
Sleeve pitch rotated to your arm’s actual hang — the single most common bespoke correction.
Why it happens
Natural arm pitch forward; standard sleeves hang backward.
Why ready-to-wear cannot fix it
Size charts grade uniformly; arms carried forward is a personal geometry. A block adjusted in one place pulls in another — which is why the correction must exist in the pattern, not in the fitting-room mirror.
How the house drafts for it
Sleeve pitch rotated to your arm’s actual hang — the single most common bespoke correction. The correction is recorded in your Fit Passport, so every later commission starts from it automatically.
Where it matters most
This correction carries most for: suit, blazer, overcoat. It is reviewed at every fitting, in every city, for every garment.
