lapelled
Having folded flaps
Lapelled describes a garment that has lapels—the folded flaps of fabric on either side of the front opening of a coat, jacket, or blazer.
The term appears most often in compound descriptions specifying the style: a wide-lapelled suit, a shawl-lapelled tuxedo.
Something lapelled has this characteristic tailoring feature, distinguishing it from collarless or mandarin-collared alternatives.
