So I’m unsure on this point. Which of course, is one of the great reasons why the experiment is reversible.

There are two benefits that come from French bearers when they are indeed buttoned: First, they help to ensure a perfectly flat front for the trousers, and thus also ensure that drape is even. Second, they take the pressure off the single button or hook at the middle point on the waistband. Some trousers may also have a cloth tab which buttons towards the right and provides additional support, again taking stress off the center. A hook and bar fastening is a popular choice for the closure on tailored trousers, skirts and other garments. It is an alternative to a button closure, particularly where a clean, minimal look is required. It is also a fairly secure fastening that can generally hold more strain than a hook and eye fastening (which is normally just used as a light weight closure where two edges meet, rather than overlap). Most of the time the strip of cloth doesn’t show, but even when it does it’s quite tonal and doesn’t look odd. The images below show the other type of hook and bar that can be sewn on with small, neat buttonhole stitches around the loops at either end. It is best to test different types on small scraps of your fabric to determine if it will suit the needs of your garment. Bear in mind that you will also have a more secure fastening if the hooks and bars are secured to a strong internal layer, rather than just only being attached to a layer of fabric. So this could mean using strong fusing or a layer of interfacing or canvas as an under layer and attaching your hooks and bars through the fabric to the structure underneath. Norms about what is appropriate or inappropriate to wear are, in fact, dictated by society, not by individuals. On the whole, these norms are created organically and evolve spontaneously, just like languages. That said, the individual idiosyncratic choices of high profile individuals (like presidents, royals, and celebrities) can exert a disproportionate influence. For instance, hats went by the wayside in America because the youthful JFK rarely chose to wear one. After JFK, it was difficult to wear one without looking like an old fogey. But all of this was happenstance; I don’t think JFK was intentionally trying to shape fashion trends.I think I’ll have to wear it with more things, probably over the rest of the winter, before I know.

The vertical line that runs from a trouser’s thigh down to them hem. Ideally, it will bisect your knee.

Cutter

Abbreviation of “cut, make, and trim,” which refers to the labor portion of suit making price structures (the other portion being cloth). A strip of fabric sewn to the insides of trouser bottoms to give them additional weight and thus improved drape. When it comes to lapels, Chong suggests that having a gorge “cut more horizontally makes a very thin but very tall gentleman look less lanky, whereas an upward sweeping peak flatters a shorter gentleman by giving the illusion of height. Similarly, a larger man should wear peaks that point upward. The gentle sweep of the lapel emphasises the ‘V’ of his upper body, making him slimmer at the waist, wider at the chest.” and 5 are fascinating – because I’ve never seen them written down, and have never considered that others might do them on purpose too. I’ve started wearing high-waisted trousers this summer (stoffa) and as such I’ve developed a number of new habits – which include a variation on 5.

These were the old and established rules, they told me, simple rules, the middle way between maintaining a classic profile, important!, and being comfortable, which of course was less important. They could know, being born at the beginning of the twentieth century, or even slightly before that, into the upper and mostly well dressed classes.

Double-Breasted

You can wrap the two sides completely, and tie it together so the silhouette is the same as a normal overcoat (above). A spool totaling 560 yards of yarn. “Super” numbers used to classify wool are determined by the number of hanks that can be spun from one pound of raw wool. The thinner/finer the fibers, the more hanks can be spun from it, thus the Super number increases. Also known as side-tabs, these are found on trousers with no belt loops as a tightening mechanism. Traditionally seen on tuxedo trousers.

The suggestion might be that you look like your grandfather or a fat-cat banker, but the risks are significant either way.When I got my first DB, decades ago, some very ancient, sage and classically dressed gentlemen instructed that if one happened not to be a member of the armed forces or a brass band and nevertheless desired to wear a DB suit, that these were the rules: I do not like belted wrap coats, even though loose coats with such a belt have become trendy. I guess fashion has it that in a lifetime everyone will desire at least once loose garments and then fitted ones. A good thing after all, but I already had my loose phase and I feel it unlikely that it seduces me again. Term referring to a garment that has been made almost entirely by hand based on a pattern created exclusively for the customer, often with the stipulation that 50 hours of handwork are necessary to earn the title “bespoke”. The Savile Row Bespoke Association also states that the suit must be made on or around Savile Row itself to be considered truly bespoke. A style of bow tie with two narrow ends of equal width. One of the most popular bow tie silhouettes.
