I was not pretty confident wearing the double breasted suit but I overcame all the negative thoughts. It was not that easy especially when people looked at me like if I were from another planet but what a great feeling. From that point on, I've been in love with the double breasted suit thanks to you ! And what a change it is. This actually has a lot of charm and personality. Cheers !

Dear Hugo, Can you do a video about which stitches to remove on suits/coats that are bought off the rack?(i dont know if bespoke tailors put these in) I know some pockets are closed and that there ussually is a stitch at the back vents for example which should be removed. I recently bought a doublebreasted overcoat with peak lapels and im not sure if i'm suppost to remove part of the stitching thats behind the peak lapels, can you expand on the back of the collars what they are suppost to look like?

Hugo, can you consider in a future video please how one should carry items in pockets. I find if I put a mobile phone or wallet or keys in a jacket pocket it sometimes pulls the jacket out of shape.

I was going to comment on the first episode about the visibility of your shirt that is allowed by the jacket's design. You especially seem to see the lack of visibility on DB suits vs SB. I tend to like small to medium visibility. I like the formality. But having more shirt visible has a more, approachable appeal. Like the jacket you wore on this video. There is also one thing I'm curious about... How much tie to show under the buttoned area of the jacket. You have a little tie showing. But some jackets, show none. Any opinion on this?

It is quite interesting that double breasted suit with all active buttons on the opposite side - like 6 on 3, 4 on 2, or 8 on 4 - are a norm in military service dress (especially Navy and Coast Guard), but far less popular among civilian that tend to have some button on the opposite side inactive. Is it more like a fashion thing or more like practical side?

If it’s a bespoke suit, the little “discreet” details are the beautiful things between you and the tailor that make it worth the time and the extra investment, yes? As for working in a vest...I’m a filmmaker and photographer. We “never” wear a suit, unless we are going to be referred to as the groom or the defendant on the day. When I’m directing or shooting, I think it looks buttoned down yet casual to work in a dress shirt, tie and vest, having dramatically removed my jacket as inspiration takes me! Affectation? Peut être. It works for me!

I love love double breasted suits; 6 on 4 with wide peak lapels...always. However, what is the appropriate vent? Side, center, or no vents? I always pick no vents as I want the jacket to maintain its shape as I walk. I unbutton the jacket when I sit down to maintain the shape or take it off. I am thinking side vents [2] will allow you to sit down with the jacket buttoned and the jacket will keep its shape. My issue with side vents is that it highlights the man's derriere unnecessarily or make his hips look larger than they are. This looks awkward and unkempt. What do you think? :)

The origin of the DB is the military Pea Coat (for the Navy). And on those garments, there are no inactive buttons. All of them can be used. Cheers, Hugo

Mr Jacomet, how did you manage to wear your jackets from 2007? I bought my bespoke DB jackets 4 years ago and now I gained weight so i can't fit into my double breasted jackets anymore. how did you maintain your body shape? any tips?

Good food (with minimum to zero processed food), a balanced diet and a little bit of exercise. No big secrets. By the way, your tailor can easily alter your suits to make them fit. Cheers my friend, Hugo

Would the six on one be of use to those who may be shorter, would the longer V up top draw the eye more upwards than the viewer focused on the overall height of the person? I like how the double breasted avoids the aweful bottom V that can happen where you see a gentleman's shirt and tie and belt all down bottom, taking the eye off the face.

Are rounded/open quarter double breasted jackets a thing? To me, the major advantage of the single and double breasted suit, respectively, is that the former with its more open front offers a visually longer leg line/rise and the latter builds a stronger chest. I wonder if one could have the best of both worlds. I imagine it wouldn't work and the jacket would become too top heavy but it sounds interesting lol

Dear Hugo, I am a late 20's lawyer who recently inherited my dad's 6x1 peak lapel DB suit. The suit fits me perfectly. Mais cependant, j'ne sais pas si un jeune home doit/peut porter un costume 6x1!!! Hugo, j'te serais reconnaissant si tu pouvais me conseiller stp.

Great video, forgive me if this is off-topic, but given how much Hugo loves double breasted suits (and jackets) I am curious as to why he does not own a db blazer with brass buttons? Maybe Hugo has a secret aversion to brass buttons that we have just discovered?...I am kidding of course!

Your videos are very educational and of an exceptional quality. It would be amazing / fantastic if you also had a personal premium styling service where people could hire you to examine / analyise their current wardrobe / lifestyle / body type and shape / skin colouring / objectives and then put in place a overall styling plan for them. If not your company, perhaps you can recommend quality stylists / coaches.

Dear Hugo! It is not a secret that youtube is mainly English speaking. So all of us from time to tome find American and British programs where we can see and borrow style ideas. I do not even mean KZbin programs, but BBS TV Talk shows for example. Would you please review French, or may be Italian programs, significant in terms of style, if you could? Thanks! Please, be our window to France! Like "C'est Jean Pierre! This is how he dressed up, and this is why."

My dear Hugo! We share the same passion for double breasted suits. My preference is 6x2. I also leave the bottom button unfastened. But almost every photo of Prince Charles wearing double breasted 6x2, he fastened all buttons. Is it more elegant or the Prince is not paying respect to King Edward VII? Best regards, Carlos
