Go into a men's clothing store and look at the coat collars. They are creased all the way down, about two to three inches below the gorge seam (where the collar is sewed to the lapel), and the lapel is rolled from that point to a point about 1 to 2 inches above the top button and button hole. It's the collar crease that controls the break of the lapel. 1, record 1, English, - break%20of%20the%20lapel
