Take in waistcoat, leave formal jacket alone?

Of course you don’t want it too small, but a garment that fits you will always look better than one that doesn’t.

I’d have it tailored.

When you say "I’d have it tailored." do you mean the waistcoat or jacket or both?

Thank you,

Both. It’s pretty easy to take in a jacket to accommodate for reduced weight.
