What is a Bouttonnaire?
A Bouttonnaire is a button hole, also called a carnation hole, that goes on the lapel of suits and jackets. On men´s suits and jackets and on some women´s suits, this is a default feature. Should a bouttonnaire or a lapel button hole be required in styles where this is not a default, please specify it using the special requests section of the order placement process We can also do a stalk holder behind the lapel that will keep carnations in place. There is no extra charge for this feature. Use our Style Search function and type in the words ´Bouttonnaire´ in the keywords field of the search criteria to bring up styles with this feature.
