resize
This term is predominantly used in digital contexts, specifically regarding user interfaces and graphic design. It describes the act of altering dimensions while maintaining or changing the aspect ratio of a digital element. In this technical register, it is a neutral, functional term.
When applied to clothing, the word implies a professional alteration process. Unlike "shrink" or "stretch," which describe the physical reaction of fabric to external forces, "resize" denotes a deliberate, intentional modification performed by a tailor to achieve a specific fit.
