Why Does Buttoning Your Suit The Right Way Matter?

The rules are easy enough to learn from the suit buttoning infographic.


Let’s begin with the ‘why.’ There are several reasons to care about how and when to button your suit jacket:

It sends a signal that you pay attention to the details. The vast majority of men who violate these rules do so because they do not wear a suit regularly. These small rules are used by “those in the know” to identify other men “in the the know”.

In most situations, this makes a suit look better on a man. A buttoned suit when standing cuts a cleaner silhouette.

Prevent the buttons from popping. When seated, unbuttoning allows you to sit more comfortable, prevents wrinkles and keeps the buttons from popping.
Suits are tailored with the assumption that the bottom button will never be fastened. Modern suits are cut in such a way that the fabric doesn’t drape properly when the bottom button is fastened for a two button or three button jacket.
Important to note that we’re talking about SUITS here. Sports jackets are usually buttoned the same way but the rules are much more relaxed because it’s a more casual style.
