Nehru Suits

Nehru Suits Offer Unique Style

The popularity of Nehru suits for men can be attributed to its hip-length tailored coats and its stand-up or mandarin collar suit style. Its origin is said to be modeled from the South Asian Achkan or Sherwani, which are garments of Muslim aristocrats. Initially worn by Jawaharlal Nehru, India’s Prime Minister, between 1947 and 1964, this is where its name (Nehru suit) has been derived. One modern difference, however, is that the Nehru collar suit is shorter, unlike the Achkan’s cut that reaches below the knees.

Nehru collar suits traditionally use terry wool as the fabric choice in tailoring. This well-known fabric for the Nehru suit is a blend of 35% Merino wool and 65% polyester. What’s great with this fabric is that it is perfect for any kind of weather. Men can wear the Nehru collar suit during summer as well as in the winter. For this reason along with the timeless style that a mandarin collar suit offers, the Nehru suit has paved its way to become one of the most sought after men’s articles of clothing for all occasions in past years. Its popularity is widespread in Europe and started to be marketed and gain popularity as the Nehru jacket throughout the mid-1960s to 70’s. The Nehru suit is even found among famous actors and music artists such as the Beatles and Steven Seagal, admitting that the mandarin suit is one of their favorite choices of formal garments and often seen wearing it.
