Prince Of Wales Suit

The Prince of Wales pattern, renowned for its subtle check, takes its name from the Prince of Wales himself, Edward VIII. Originally considered the ideal fabric for country outings until the early 20th century, the Prince of Wales suit has since become an essential classic at Fursac: timeless, sophisticated, and versatile.

 

The History of the Men’s Prince of Wales Suit

 

The men’s Prince of Wales suit owes its name and fame to Edward VII’s successor, Edward VIII. Quickly embraced by the British and Americans—most notably when Edward VIII visited New York City—the checkered pattern evolved during the 20th century from a countryside staple to a cornerstone of refined men’s fashion. Today, it is a hallmark of urban elegance.
