Understanding the Basic Formal Wear – What is a Jacket Style?

A tie sleeve or a coat and jacket style is a classic combination that never goes out of style. The classic jacket style is one that covers the upper part of the body except for the hands and the collar, which are usually a button closed around the neck. This style is classic in its simplicity and elegant. It can either be worn as a single piece or with a matching tie and it is very versatile as it can be used for all types of occasions whether formal or informal. It can be worn to work, to school, on a date, an outdoor party or a formal affair and more. It has always been popular and this trend will probably continue to increase in popularity.

This style usually consists of two pieces of material that are connected by a single flat panel of fabric called the jacket sleeve. There is no collar and the top is usually unbuttoned except for the top button which can have three buttons if you like. This type usually consists of three buttons on the front if you prefer and some have a zipper at the waistline. If you would like your jacket to have an element of interest then you can add a colored lining or other decorative touches such as sequins, embroidered patches, buckles, buttons, ribbons, laces or even zippers on your jacket sleeve.

The unlined jackets consist of a single layer of fabric that is designed to give a clean line to the wearer. It can be made from any type of fabric and in a variety of designs such as flat front, pleated, flat front with zipper back, mock turtleneck and many others. It is perfect for winter suits because it helps to keep you warm and also because it does not allow the wind to get through your clothing while keeping you quite. They are also perfect for wearing during the summer months as they will not retain the heat in your body, which is perfect for hot sunny days.
