'Suits'

 

My project is about the status and symbolism of suits, how different cuts and styles make a suit formal or not. Different countries have different styles i.e.  English, French, northern or south Italian and American. For example, the English cut is very structured and formal, were as Italian suits are softer in the shoulders but less formal. Henry Pool and co was the first designer of the tuxedo. This is the most formal normal people wear. I chose my project topic due to my love of suits which is the drive for this project. As I enjoy the different styles, cuts, fabrics and the more or less formal suits. I also don’t think enough men my age knows about suits and have no appreciation of the craftmanship. My audience that I am targeting is men’s suits.
