It was sometimes fastened by a fly and the buttons could reach all the way down to the hem, that's definitely not a style you see anymore today. Generally, a paletot had a flat back that means no belt, no pleats, no folds or vertical seams. Occasionally, you see a gentleman with a paletot with a back slit but that was generally quite short. So what are hallmarks of a paletot? Typically, you have six buttons and double-breasted configuration meaning a six-two so you have six buttons two closing buttons and the top ones are typically spaced wider apart. That being said, you can also find paletots that are in a four one button configuration with just four buttons and one closing buttons but again, the top row of buttons is spaced further apart. The paletot resembles the look of the old school frock coat which is not really worn anymore today unless you are really into reenactment. Frock coats, particularly body coats, they fit much closer to the body than the paletot and they have different seams including vertical seams and buttons in the back. In the 30s you can sometimes see a paletot with a waist seam in the front but not in the back. Now in terms of color choices, a paletot typically comes in darker colors such as Navy or grey but you could also make it in green yellow or red. Likewise, the length is not set in stone and typically, everything is considered to be a paletot that is more than knee length and to about ankle length. So why do we think every man should have a paletot in their wardrobe? Basically, it is a simple overcoat and if you have it in a dark navy color, you can wear it to any kind of business event, you can wear it for a funeral, as well as weddings, or black tie or even white tie events. Yes, it's navy and not quite black but in an evening setting, it works just fine and it's just one coat that has the widest use case scenario. So if you don't have a lot of money for overcoats, I suggest you invest in a paletot first because you could wear it all the way from your formal occasions down to more casual occasions. In a plain color, it works with all kinds of pattern suits such as houndstooth, small checks, as well as pinstripes. On the flipside, if you wear a lot of solid suits, I suggest you invest in a slightly textured paletot such as this one here, which contains calls of grey, black, and blue in a very small pattern so from afar, it looks more like a solid grey overcoat but if you come up closer, you'll see that it's slightly different and it sets off the solid plain texture of your suits. If you add a fur collar to any overcoat including a paletot, you really change the look dramatically and it almost looks like an entirely new garment. Because the paletot is double-breasted, you get two layers in front of your chest which keeps you warmer in the winter. If you wear a lot of classic casual garments such as cardigans or maybe tweed coats, I suggest going with a paletot with a textured fabric because that way, it can be easily worn with any kind of tweed coat. The paletot today still has a plain back which is ode to the town heritage. Overall, it is a very classic simple and sophisticated overcoat that will never disappoint. Especially if you're starting out, I think it's a great choice and you can always add coarser tweed overcoats later on but in the beginning, it makes sense to have one overcoat that works for you in many occasions. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to stay updated?
