| What is a Suit? A suit, with varieties such as a business suit, three-piece suit, lounge suit or two-piece suit, is a collection of matching clothing comprising: * A coat (commonly known as a jacket) * A pair of trousers (USA pants), or a skirt for women. * Optionally, a waistcoat (USA vest) (men only). A two-piece suit or lounge suit is one lacking a waistcoat; a three-piece suit has one. A suit is generally accompanied by a collared shirt and tie (for men), or a blouse (for women). A hat such as the fedora and the bowler (for men), or the pill box (for women), in Western countries, used to complete the outfit, but over the course of the 20th century they largely fell out of fashion and are no longer commonly worn with suits. Men wear suits much more frequently than women. Women's suits, a later development than men's suits, are usually worn only in business settings. For other dressy occasions, women more frequently wear other styles of formal clothing. Contents |
| Just because men wear suits more than women do, this does not mean that only men should have access to the best of the suit websites on the net that there may be. I would love to see a website for ladies suits online, this would make it easier on my girlfriend when it is that she is in search of a new suit, in which to work. |
