2 vs 3 buttons?
I recently acquired a Prince Charlie jacket and vest. The jacket fits fine, except the sleeves are too long. I took it to a seamstress to have the sleeves shortened. Turns out that they are so long, that to shorten them to the proper length, would eliminate one of the three cuff buttons. She is exploring possible ways to move the button, but was not too encouraging that that would be a possibility. My question is: would eliminating one of the buttons, constitute a major faux pas, or would it be acceptable? I would only be wearing the jacket to formal or semi-formal, civilian affairs. Thank you in advance, for any input.
