Thom Browne Velvet Jacket



This Thom Browne Velvet Jacket ($2,579) has the well tailored design required to push a sharp outfit over the edge from good to great. The burgundy velvet gives the jacket its rich charm and the black grosgrain piping brings it an excellent preppy vibe. Also, the design is enhanced by the flap pockets, breast pocket, and double breasted button closure.

How to Wear a Double Breasted Blazer

 izandrew double brested blazer men how to wear

1. A Bolder Peak
Every suit featured here has a peak lapel (rather than a notch). It's a crucial part of the bigger personality of the DB.

2. A Wider Lapel
The rules of double-breasted are different. Get used to a wider lapel than on your single-breasteds. That's part of what gives you that updated 1970s vibe you're after.

3. Six Buttons, of Course
We're classicists on this front: In almost every case, we like a six-button jacket. To see the one exception, check page 175.

4. That Tweaked Shape
The key to the DB's macho look is strong shoulders that taper to a narrow waist. If your jacket looks too boxy, have a tailor take in the sides.

5. A New, Shorter Length
The DB looks fresh once again because designers have modernized the cut, truncating the length of the jacket for this 2011 take on the look.
