    Just curious what the lapel facings are made of? Everything else appears to be velvet, and you have already mentioned the silk lining. I guess there is something else lining the collar.

    The facings are made of corded silk, or grosgrain. I don't know about the lining of the collar.

    Thanks. Upon closer inspection of the photo, it appears what I was looking at was the rather unusual hanger the doublet was on, very highly shaped in the collar area.
