Where did the men’s 3 piece suits came from?

Men’s 3 piece suits are a traditional form of formal clothing, especially in the Western World. For decades the matching set of garments have changed a lot. The men’s 3 piece suits are influenced by the era and style of the particular region but most of them were a set, consisting of the 3 main garments – blazer jacket, waistcoat and trousers. In the past men’s 3 piece suits were a lot more colorful and were combined with accessories like wigs, knee breeches and white stockings. The tradition of the colorful men’s 3 piece suit was lost due to the French Revolution.

Evolution of the men’s 3 piece suits

The evolution of the men’s 3 piece suits is more visible in the United Kingdom. The British tailors, who then made suits, used to put steam and padding in the molding of woolen cloth. During the evolution of men’s 3 piece suits the waistcoat and hats, as an accessory, were often dropped out and return to the set of garments.

The transformation of the men’s 3 piece suits

The transformation of the classical men’s 3 piece suits is a long transition and a lot of people and styles have influenced the process. In the beginning of the 19^th century a British dandy left his mark in the European way of clothing. He redefined the style of men’s 3 piece suits and after popularizing it, it became very common with European men. This man brought the style of wearing well-cut and tailored men’s 3 piece suits that were completed with beautifully knotted ties. The thing that caught European men was the simplicity and the new idea that men’s 3 piece suits were made from dark colors, such as black, brown and blue. The new style was a complete contrary of the extravagant wardrobe of the bourgeoisie.

Men’s 3 piece suits for the upper-class

The British dandy managed to introduce a completely new style of clothing for the upper-class as well. It was a men’s 3 piece suit made of a tailcoat (very well fitted, tailored in deep dark colors), non-matching trousers, pale waistcoat and a white shirt. The man’s 3 piece suit was combined with a cravat and tall boots (length around the knee). This is one of the most distinguished looks of the men’s 3 piece suit in the past that most of the people recognize easily.

What is a men’s 3 piece suit?

The men’s 3 piece suits are a set of garments, which are made from the same cloth and materials. The suits can differ in many areas – they can be mass manufactured or hand-made, tailored to your body or with standard sized, made from cotton, wool and many other materials. There are different sets as well. You have the 2 piece suit, men’s 3 piece suits and the 5 piece set.

Two piece suit

The 2 piece suit, made of trousers and blazers are often produced from lighter and breathable materials. This is because this type is typically worn when the weather is warmer and does not need a lot of clothing then the men’s 3 piece suits offer. The 2 piece suit can be worn with both tie and bowtie or unbuttoned (depending on the occasion).

Men’s 3 piece suits

The men’s 3 piece suits are a little bit more formal and heavier than the 2 piece. It is a set made of trousers, waistcoat and blazer. The men’s 3 piece suits are more formal than the 2 piece and will suit you perfect for a lot of occasions such as weddings, proms, parties, office wear, balls and other.

Five piece suits

The 5 piece suit has the same main garments like the men’s 3 piece suits (trousers, waistcoat and blazer) but it also includes a tie or cravat and a hankie. You can always compose a 5 piece suit by yourself with a men’s 3 piece suit and some accessories but the 5 piece one usually provides you with matching garments and accessories. It saves you time and money and assures you that you will look amazing no matter the event.

Tuxedos

The tuxedos are a type of semi-formal suit, worn on different occasions such as balls, dinners and others. The difference between a men’s 3 piece suit and a tuxedo is the fabric that it’s made of. Usually the tuxedo is recognized for its satin or grosgrain facings on both the jacket's lapels and buttons. Unlike the men’s 3 piece suits, the tuxedos are tailored mainly in black or really dark blue and are commonly worn with formal shoes and shirt, now that fashion trends have come a long way we also see vibrant colors such as white making an appearance as well as different types of textures like embroidery. Men’s 3 piece suits and tuxedos are preferred on events, that require the “black tie dress code”. Another distinguished thing about the tuxedos is that they were originally only worn only with a bowtie however as times have moved on it is now commonly worn with a tie and can look amazing with the right tie (slim tie preferably). The men’s 3 piece suits can be worn with tie, bowtie, cravat or with nothing at all.
