Half canvas construction

Full canvas construction

 

Fused construction

Let's begin with the fused construction. It is ideal for office or ceremony clothing. It is the most affordable, while still offering an upscale level of finishing.

The front aspect of the jacket, from the shoulder to the bottom of the jacket, is indeed overlayed with a fused layer set in place at high temperature. Furthermore, all of the supports between the components and the pockets are also fused.

 

Half canvas construction

Thanks to its natural fabric and its sewn lapel, the half canvas construction or semi-traditional construction wears more comfortably than the fused construction. It's the best value for money. 

The unstructured construction, reserved for jackets only, is characterized by the absence of shoulder-pieces and offers a very flexible wear based upon a more supple semi-lined composition. 

 

Full canvas construction

Finally, the full canvas construction is immediately recognizable by its flexibility and its lightness. This is the one that will stay with you the longest and will showcase your fabrics' qualities the best, whether they are heavy and made to last, or lightweight as with silk. The Full canvas construction presents an exceptional method of assembling supports.

The latter are assembled  with the primary fabric by means of stitching, which allows for more flexibility between the pieces composing the jacket. Although more costly, primarily because of the manual work required, the Full canvas construction offered by Blandin & Delloye is one of the most affordable on the market providing this level of quality.
