Level Two Semester 1 Garment Technology Boards - Rever Collars

Primary and secondary research into different applications of the 'rever collar'. It adds a sense of formality to most garments and added details to the shape or fabric of the collar, such as the shearling in image 8, or the decorative shape, stitching and gold braid in the historical jacket in image 6. In general, I prefer the use of rever collars with double-breasted fronts, as they don't over-dominate the garment too much, which is why I feel they often work better on coats and jackets than on jumpsuits or dresses that are normally single-breasted.
