Long dismissed as a relic of the 80s, the double-breasted suit has returned with a narrower, more flattering silhouette.
The Modern Silhouette
The 2025 version features higher armholes and a shorter jacket length, preventing the "boxy" look of the past.
How to Wear It
Keep the bottom button undone and ensure the shoulders are sharp. It works best with a crisp spread collar shirt.
Peak Lapels
A must-have feature for any double-breasted jacket.
Six-on-Two
The classic button configuration for a timeless look.
