What is a Drape Suit?

A drape suit is a special type of men's suit. It's known for having extra fabric, especially in the chest and shoulders. This excess fabric creates soft folds or "drapes." Because of this extra room, the suit feels comfortable but still looks professional and stylish.

People first started wearing drape suits in the early 20th century. That means these suits have been popular for about 100 years! They became famous because of a special way of tailoring known as the English drape cut.

The History of the Drape Suit

Back in the 1920s and 1930s, a tailor named Frederick Scholte started making suits in a new way. He wanted suits to feel comfortable but still look sharp. Scholte's style included extra fabric at the shoulders and chest, giving the suits a relaxed, smooth appearance. This became known as the English drape cut.

Anderson Sheppard, a famous tailor on Savile Row in London, learned Scholte’s technique and made it famous worldwide. Savile Row is a street in London known for having the best tailors. People from all over the world came to Savile Row to buy suits made in the English drape style.

The drape suit was especially popular among men who wanted to look stylish and elegant but also comfortable. Even though the suit was roomy, the shoulder line was strong and sharp. Many drape suits were also double breasted, making them look even more elegant.

What Makes a Drape Suit Special?

One special feature of the drape suit is its sleeve head. The sleeve head on these suits is usually slightly bigger. This helps create a smoother line from the shoulder down the arm. Another feature is extended shoulders. This means the shoulders of the suit jacket are a bit wider, giving a powerful yet relaxed look.

The extra fabric used in drape suits isn't just for style. It also makes the suit comfortable. You can move your arms and chest easily because of this extra space. This makes it perfect for everyday wear or special events.

Even though the drape suit first became popular nearly 100 years ago, it’s still popular today. That's because it's timeless. You can wear a drape suit to work, to weddings, or for any important event. It’s a classic look that always stays fashionable.

Many famous actors and celebrities still choose drape suits because they look stylish yet relaxed. The drape suit is great for people who want comfort without sacrificing style.
