is it possible to tailor and dress up cords without looking like your other pants are at the cleaners?

- Asked by Anonymous

Yes, you can have almost any pair of trousers altered, cords included. 

As for how to “dress up” cords, I think the key is to use them like a cold-weather chino. Put it with a navy blazer and OCBD and you’ve got something that works. 

Also, they’d probably look great with a chunky knit old-man wool sweater.
