To sum up,
Flannel is a fabric more suited to colder seasons, such as autumn or winter. If you wear a suit during this season, flannel will be a perfect choice to keep you warm and comfortable while remaining elegant.
Parts details
The jacket
For starters, it’s designed with vintage details like wider, slightly rounded lapels. In addition, flannel offers a soft, warm texture for the cooler months of the year. In addition, the jacket’s pockets can be adorned with flaps or welt pockets. The jacket’s buttons can be classic or horn, adding a touch of authenticity. The shoulders of the jacket are straight, giving an elegant, structured silhouette.
The vest
This is a characteristic element of a three-piece suit. For a vintage look, it’s often made from the same green flannel as the jacket. It’s fitted and sleeveless, worn under the jacket to add elegance and sophistication to the ensemble. It has a line of buttons to match those on the jacket and a coordinating fabric lining. The back of the vest can be made in satin or silk fabric with an adjustable belt for a perfect fit.
Finally, the pants match the jacket and vest, made from the same green flannel to create a coherent look. They have a high waist and slightly flared legs to evoke the aesthetic of years gone by.
The fabric
You can choose a fabric from the famous Italian draper Loro Piana in the wool and cashmere bundle.
Which flannel color to choose ?
Choose a flannel color that suits you and the colors you’re comfortable with. Classic colors such as gray, dark green or brown are often popular for business or everyday suits. When it comes to style, you can opt for a three-piece suit, a two-button suit or even a double-breasted flannel suit, depending on the mood you’re going for. Here, we offer a 3-piece suit, ideal for a dressy outfit.
The vintage ambiance blends with timeless quality pieces, flannel being a beautiful material that’s both thick and easy to care for.

The suit we offer here is emblematic of the 1920s. However, it's an original approach that we love at Blandin & Delloye.
