single-breasted
One column closure
Single-breasted describes a coat, jacket, or vest that fastens with a single row of buttons down the center front, with just enough fabric to close without overlapping: a single-breasted suit.
This is the standard cut for most jackets and blazers, contrasted with double-breasted styles that have overlapping front panels and two parallel rows of buttons.
