Lapels Types

Lapels are the folded flaps of fabric on the front of a suit jacket or blazer, and they come in various styles, each contributing to the overall aesthetic of the garment. Notable lapel types include:

Notch lapels, which have a triangular notch where the lapel and collar meet, commonly found on business suits;

Peak lapels, characterized by upward-pointing tips, often associated with formalwear like tuxedos; 

Shawl lapels, which have a smooth, rounded appearance, frequently seen on evening jackets.

Lapel styles can influence the formality and design of a suit, allowing individuals to express their personal style while adhering to certain fashion norms.
