What is a "lapel"?
A lapel is a folded flap of fabric on the front of a garment that extends from the collar to the chest. It is typically found on blazers, suit jackets, and overcoats, and serves both a functional and aesthetic purpose. Lapels can be either notched, peaked, or shawl, with each style lending a distinct look to the jacket. The lapel is an important aspect of a jacket's design as it can help frame the wearer's face and add visual interest to the outfit. Additionally, lapels may feature a buttonhole, which can be used to attach a boutonniere or flower, adding a touch of color or personality to the jacket.
