Mid-Century Tailoring
Narrow, short and close to the body.
Mid-century tailoring is narrower than modern slim tailoring but shorter and higher through the armhole, which is why it reads as sharper without reading as tight. A slim notch lapel, a two-button front, a flat-front trouser with a clean break, and a narrow tie in a small knot.
