Suit

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black suit consisting of a jacket and trousers. The jacket is double-breasted with four buttons down the front and a wide lapel. The jacket sleeve has one button at the cuff. A brown shirt with a ruffled collar is visible at the neckline. The trousers are straight-legged and appear to be made of the same material as the jacket. The suit is hanging on a wooden hanger with a metal hook. The background is white. The suit appears to be 'Suit' by Alexander McQueen.
