Lapel flowers aren’t just for proms and weddings anymore, and a man doesn’t need a special occasion to wear one. The lapel flower, or boutonniere as it’s also known, has a long and storied history dating back to ancient times. Lapel flowers have been used to indicate everything from wealth to military affiliation. In today’s world, men are more likely to wear one to add that extra detail to an ensemble. Whatever your personal style, accessorizing your suit jacket or sports coat with an appropriate boutonniere or lapel flower pin will take it to the next sartorial level.

MORE INFO ON LAPEL FLOWERS / PINS
The resurgence of men’s fine dress towards more classic (fitted) looks and “traditional” accessories has led to interest into their origins, from Harris tweeds to the focus of this article lapel flowers. In addition to history, the modern man who wants to sport this stylish look will want to know where it goes, and how to prevent a saggy or floppy boutonniere, as nothing undermines this dapper look quite as fast. On most jackets there is a button hole, or at least a stitched button hole outline. If there is not, you can still use pin(s) to attach a man-made or real flower to your jacket (this is common for tuxedo jackets and sports coats).
Why The Left Lapel?
There’s no definitive answer as to why the left lapel is appropriate, but it has become an accepted element within sartorial lore. Many believe it is because the heart is on the left side of the body, which is quite a romantic notion.
