Two Button
Easily the most common type of jacket fastening, it is ideal for all occasions and all types of jackets. Deep V neckline that should fall right above the navel; creating a flattering elongated silhouette.

Standard Peak Satin
A "peak" at the lapel edge, this is the preferred choice for tuxedos. Designed to lead the eye out and up, emphasizing the width of the shoulders while narrowing the stomach. The most formal and traditional type of lapel for a tuxedo, it projects a bold, powerful and serious look. The standard sized peak lapel is perfect for most ties, bowties, and collars. The collar is made from a different fabric to that of the jacket - satin.

Double Breasted Shawl
Two columns of four buttons. An ornate and highly formal style. More old school look, with a shawl lapel that lands lower on the chest. Sightly rounded bottom.
|
Flap Pocket
Pockets that have a flap, made from the same fabric as the suit, over the opening. The flaps add visual depth to a suit, but they can also be tucked in, thus imitating the look of jet pockets.
|
Ticket Pocket
An optional stylistic choice, the ticket pocket is a smaller sized pocket located above the right hand side pocket. Historically used for storing train or movie tickets. Adds character and a slight vintage touch.
|
Double Vents
Twin openings that sit on each side of the jacket’s back hem. A more sophisticated flair. The preferred look for most suits.
|
Displaced Fastening
Having the top pant button slightly on the right side makes for a classier style and elevates the overall look of a suit.

Two Pockets
Standard look, symmetrical style.
