Merton | Dress Suit Shawl Collar Navy

Navy. Three pieces. Done.

The shawl lapel runs unbroken from the single closing button to the neck, which is what gives this suit its evening weight. The waistcoat is cut from the same cloth, so the line stays sharp when the jacket comes off for the last hour. Trousers hang straight from the waist without catching at the knee. Deep navy reads darker under evening light than it does in daylight.

Shawl Collar That Frames the Chest The rounded, unbroken lapel keeps the V of a tie or bow clean and uncluttered. It is the detail that separates this suit from a standard notch-lapel two-piece.

Matching Waistcoat for a Second Look The waistcoat carries the same cloth and buttons, so you still read finished at the table once the jacket is on the chair.

One-Button Closure That Sits High and Clean A single button closes at the natural waist, drawing the chest up and the front panels flat rather than letting them splay.

Smooth Suiting Cloth With a Quiet Sheen A close, flat weave with very little surface texture, pressed to hold a crease and catch light softly rather than shine. Fully lined through the jacket body, with a back vent that gives as you sit so the hem falls straight again when you stand.

Wear it with a white dress shirt, a black bow tie and polished leather oxfords; swap in a knitted tie and the jacket carries a dinner just as well.
