I decided to have a local tailor make a bespoke suit for me and it will be my first. Unlike a lot of the bespoke advice solicited on the forum, my question is about the styling rather than the fit. When buying OTR, I simply grab a suit and decide if I like it or not. In this case, I’ll have to name the stylistic features and that’s where I’d like some help. What do I need to consider? Obviously there’s the lapel and the venting on the back of the coat. What else? Perhaps there’s an online guide someone can link to?

Thanks in advance.
