The Heartbreaking Layers Of Meaning Behind The Suits In It s A Sin

According to John Flügel in The Psychology of Clothes (1930), the emergence and diffusion of men’s suits was “a move away from flamboyance and individuality”. In the following decades, they also became a symbol of economic and traditional state power in the hands of men who would suit up every day to go to work.

In It’s a Sin, Colin, played by Callum Scott Howells, has just moved to London to start his training in a tailor’s shop on the same iconic street. He is shy, self-effacing, and has not had the opportunity to meet anyone from the LGBTQIA+ community he knows he belongs to. The suits he wears onscreen tell the same story.
