Default Re: Why is the bottom button unbuttoned?

[ QUOTE ]
In suits, why is the bottom button left unbuttoned?
Anyone have insight on this?

One of the King Edwards was too fat to button his bottom button. Everyone followed his lead and it became a fashion rule. Suits made today are designed to have the button bottom undone and drape accordingly.
