When a lady named Hannah Montague cut the collar off her husband’s shirt to wash it separately and so was born the detachable collar. As I mentioned previously, the Grandad shirt is historically very formal. Lots of different detachable collar styles were available including the 1920's classics of the Pin Collar or the Tab collar, no pioneered by the menswear brand Hawkins & Shepherd. Without the detachable collar buttoned in, the shirt has a plain banded type of collar, which gave birth to the grandad collar you'll find today. If your suit is something more colourful, like a tan or olive, try similar-but-different shades to add depth and create an interesting tonal look.

The trench coat is also traditionally double-breasted, single-breasted versions being civilian interpretations of the original military-derived fashion. Other coat styles typically featuring a double-breasted construction are the Guards Coat and the greatcoat styles of overcoats. The Chesterfield coat may be found in either single or double-breasted. Smart-casual dressing can be a knotty thing to get your head around. On the surface it sounds like a messy clash of dress codes, full of rules and pitfalls – and it can be that. But it can also be as simple as taking one formal garment, and pairing it with something casual. Wearing a blazer with a T-shirt is the perfect example. On most modern double-breasted coats, one column of buttons is decorative, while the other is functional. The other buttons, placed on the outside edge of the coat breast, allow the overlap to fasten reversibly, left lapel over right lapel. To strengthen the fastening, a functional inner-button, called the jigger (or anchor button), is usually added to parallel-fasten the over-lapped layers together from the inside. [1]

What is a double breasted suit?

The same goes for job interviews in creative or more casual industries: showing up with a double windsor knot to a job as a creative designer might be more likely to mark you out as someone who doesn’t fit the bill. We’re talking about a casual way to wear tailoring, so guess what? The best type of blazer to wear with a T-shirt is a casual one. That usually (but not always) means something unlined, unstructured, slightly looser fitting and made from a more casual material. But it’s also true that you can subvert expectations by pairing a dressier blazer with a T-shirt.

With fabrics, there’s often a broader selection at the casual end of the spectrum. From wool and tweed to lightweight twills and cotton blends, you’ll find more materials that softly on the shoulders and drape down the body. These are all perfect for wearing with a tee.
