How to choose a suit? Do you know the
difference between double-opening and single-opening?
Whether it is custom-made suits or purchase of ready-to-wear
suits, there are many places to pay attention to, and the opening of the back
the hem of the suit is a detail that many people who are used to wearing suits
easily overlook, and it is not clear what is the difference between the types
of openings. Of course, I don't know which way to open the most suitable for
myself. Therefore, the following will take you to know the three types of
suits, and after you understand the truth, you will be able to choose the style
that suits you best.
▲ Men's suits are divided into the following three ways. After
the middle opening, side opening, and no opening.
Differences in the way men's suits
are opened
It is said that the double-opening is to facilitate the
British to ride horses, and some people say that Italians like to open their
own. But if you want to wear a very slim suit, it is strongly recommended to
double-open. Because the slim suit is not open, it will make the suit hem
tightly wrapped around your hips, and it looks like wearing a cheongsam. If the
very slim suit is a single slit, the bottom of the slit is likely to split. If
you don't like the feeling of splitting, then do double-opening. Especially if
you often insert your pockets, you can choose double-opening, because when you
put your trouser pockets, it looks better and more convenient when you look at
the back.
▲ Different opening options will also affect the appearance of the
overall clothes.
1.Single opening
The single-opening also called the riding raft, is a 10 cm
long slit that is opened below the midline of the men's suit. It originated
from the style of the back of the British aristocrats when they were riding
horses without the squeezing of the lower back of the clothes. The length of
the middle opening is usually between 8 and 10 inches. In the 1960s, fashion
has been popular for 6 inches long. Single-opening is often seen in the US
version of the suit, and the European version is rarely in the formal
dress. In fact, a single-open suit is easy to disobey as a formal suit, and the
self-cultivation effect is not good, which always gives the feeling that the
suit does not fit.

2. Double opening
Also called double-opening is the side opening that you
said. It is a seam of more than 10 cm long from the waistline at the position
where the left and right blades are sewn in the suit. It is also another style
that is derived from the British aristocrats who are riding or sitting down
without the squeezing of the lower part of the garment. Like the middle cymbal,
the length of the side slits is usually 8 to 10 inches, but the length varies
with fashion trends. The 6-inch opening was not uncommon in the 1960s, and in
the 1970s and early 1980s, the length of 13 inches deep was also popular. It
may not be so formal when it is more than 10 inches, but it is part of the
charisma. The double-opening is more functional than the single-opening. The
double-opening is like two structural lines. It can modify the body shape, and
at the same time, it can make people have more space for movement and visually
appear thinner.

3. No opening
No open coats were most relevant to Italian clothing, and Italians
did make unopened coats in the 1950s and from the late 1980s to the early
The 2000s. There is no conventional style of the above-mentioned open style, and
there is no open style in the position of the left and right seams of the suit
and the middle seam of the back. Unopened suits are almost extinct, and only
occasionally appear on custom-made suits. Although the uncultivated appearance
may be the most attractive, due to its simple, clean outline. But when you sit
down or put your hand into your pocket, the jacket is prone to wrinkles, so
it's not recommended for practical use.
