The origins of the modern suit can be traced back to the 17th century, during the restoration of King Charles II to the English throne. It was during this period that the iconic three-piece suit emerged, consisting of a coat, waistcoat, and trousers, each tailored to perfection. The credit for this style is often attributed to Charles II himself, who sought to create a more refined and polished look at the royal court.
The 20th century witnessed a pivotal shift in the role of the suit, as it transitioned from a symbol of aristocracy to a staple in the professional wardrobe. The business suit, characterized by its dark colors and clean lines, became synonymous with corporate culture and office attire. Beyond the boardroom, the suit has found its place at weddings, parties and garden soirees.
