Single breasted vs double breasted

[NanoSpeed]

Do you prefer SB suit or DB suit?

DB seems like an English gentleman thing while SB is more American.

Assuming that you are good looking, DB suit will expose your flaws if you are bo tak chek like 穿黃袍也不像太子。

SB is more neutral, but DB has a more accomplished look.

Do you agree?

Two breast is better than one.

db no longer in fashion.

I prefer my chicken rice to come double-breasted.

Originally DB meant to provide more warmth than SB, then it became a fashion statement.

For blazers, DB works better. Dunhill's classic navy blue blazers come to mind.

For sports jackets and lounge suits, generally SB preferred.

All said, DB tends to overwhelm the short. Stick to SB if you are below average height. Also DB currently not in trend, but may come back again.

forget suits. the new look. especially in sillycon valley. t’s, jeans, sometimes shorts, sandals. if you wear a suit with tie in the valley, peeps will look at you as though you’re a caveman or dinosaur.

My description was wrong.

@eatshitndie is correct.

Double breasted is James Bond and very British:

Double breasted is James Bond and very British:

Pierce Brosnan is 1.85m (6'1"), Roger Moore 1.90m (6'3"), Sean Connery 1.88m (6'2").

In the pic above, both Moore and Brosnan wearing the classic DB navy blazer with gold buttons.
