The double breasted suit, jacket and or blazer does not need any special occasion. You can wear it anywhere you would have worn a single breasted suit. In fact it will be a nice change, you will stand out.

Since the DB Look is in vogue this season, we bring to you seven different styles you can flaunt with a Double breasted blazer or jacket or suit to make most of it.

1. The Corporate Look:

There is an old saying that goes dress for the job you want not the job you have. When climbing the corporate ladder your appearance creates as much lasting an impression as much as your work does. A DB in pinstripes or grey, charcoal hues will make you stand out from the rest of your competition. Pick a simple and elegant 6 on 2 DB and team it up with a button down oxford shirt. You can add a tie and a tie pin to this look and complete it with some formal shoes.
