Nope not the fighting kind, but rather the garment! ..... In the photo below, the bride has asked me if I can do something about the way her oldest son's boxers are showing above his suit trousers .... Any suggestions what I can do?

 
Hi Paul - that's excellent, exactly what I want. I use Lightroom pretty much 100% of the time, but now that I have Photoshop I'll have to investigate what you mention: warp and transform. Aside from selected/outlined the required section, do I need to create multiple layers? Was handling the button on the trouser tricky? Sorry for what is probably basic PS questions.
 
I think I ended up with 4 layers, the area around the shoulders of the two smaller fellas on the top layer, bottom section of the waistcoat on the next, then the top area of the trousers and finally the whole image on the background layer. A small amount of warp on the waistcoat layer to pull it down a bit and a simple transform to extend the trouser layer up a bit.

The trouser button wasn't even a consideration it's actually still there, just hidden behind the waistcoat layer.

If you need any help feel free to ask.
