Double-Breasted Suits FAQ
How should a double-breasted suit fit?
A properly fitted double-breasted suit should create clean lines without pulling or bunching across the chest. The jacket should button comfortably at the waist with minimal fabric stress, while shoulders sit naturally without overhang. Trouser length should complement the jacket's proportions, typically with a slight break at the shoe. Our fitting specialists ensure optimal proportions for your body type and professional requirements.
When is it appropriate to wear a double-breasted suit?
Double-breasted suits excel in business formal environments, board meetings, and evening events where commanding presence is valued. They're particularly effective for presentations, client meetings, and special occasions requiring elevated formality. Modern interpretations also work for cocktail events and upscale social gatherings, though single-breasted options may be more versatile for daily business wear.
How do I care for premium double-breasted suits?
Premium fabrics from mills like Vitale Barberis Canonico require professional dry cleaning to maintain their structure and appearance. Store suits on quality hangers to preserve shoulder shape, and allow 24-48 hours between wears for natural fiber recovery. Rotate between multiple suits to extend longevity, and address minor alterations promptly to maintain optimal fit and professional appearance.
