Smoke Grey Peak Lapel Tuxedo

About this tuxedo

The tuxedo opens with a smoke grey leaning warm brown, a rare tone among the familiar black suits. The cloth is smooth, catching soft light at the shoulders and sleeves, looking solid yet gentle on the eye. The wide black satin peak lapels sweep up toward the top of the shoulder, in decisive contrast with the body and making the chest look broader. It is single-breasted with just one black button at the waist, hip pockets trimmed in fine satin and a white silk pocket square folded straight. The cut is close with a rounded hem, worn over plain black trousers.

Mon Amie suggests you reserve this suit for a year-end gala, a hotel dinner or the role of groom at an evening wedding. Wear it with a white shirt with a stand collar, a black bow tie, a white silk pocket square folded once, polished black shoes and a small lapel pin, which is just enough. A slim watch on a black leather strap will suit it better than a sports watch.

Every Mon Amie tuxedo begins with your own measurements: shoulder, chest, waist, sleeve length, jacket length and also your habitual posture. The tailor will choose with you the base fabric and the satin that faces the lapels so that they suit your complexion, then make a rough assembly and invite you to try it on, adjusting the pleat lines, the waist fit and the lapel opening until it feels as if it were made for you.
