But First… What is a Lapel? 

Before we get into where to put a lapel pin on your suit, let’s talk about what a lapel is.  

Lapels can be found on any suit jacket or blazer. They are the folded part of the fabric that runs above the buttons and underneath the collar. Usually, the lapel is formed by folding over the front edges of the jacket or coat and then sewing these edges to the collar, which is an extra piece of fabric around the back of the neck.

The info you really need to know is in the name : ) The lapel is exactly where you want to attach your lapel pins! Duh, right? 

Most suits have a designated area for lapel pins. This area is where the buttonhole is, usually located on the upper left-hand side. This area can be left open but it’s sometimes stitched shut by the tailor. Either way, this is where your lapel pin (or pins) are meant to go. Yup, it’s that simple!
