Suit Yourself, Jacket Construction. Jackets can make or break your outfit. So next time you're on the hunt for one, follow these tips to keep you looking and feeling confident―and make a great first impression.
How Should a Jacket Fit? No matter the style―try it on and move around―it should be comfortable. Shoulders. Shoulder seams should extend past your actual shoulder about an inch. A woven canvas piece is used under the shoulder pad for extra support. Lapels. Lapels should lay flat against the chest and be symmetrical on both sides. Hidden tapes and fusible fabrics help to keep their shape. Pockets. Pockets should lie flat against the body for a clean look. They are lined to protect the fabric. Sleeves. The jacket sleeve should hit just below the wrist. The sleeve should not hang any longer than the first knuckle of the thumb. Length. The length of the jacket will vary depending on your silhouette. So find a length that works for you.
FYI - All jackets go through a rigorous fitting process to ensure it will not only fit, but flatter your figure.
What Makes a Good Jacket? The details make it last longer and look better. Shoulder Pads & Sleeve Head. Prevents sleeve from puckering. Covers shoulder pad outline. Lining & Stitching. Decorative piping and stitching. Jacquard and striped lining. Main label fabric patch.
