Classic Black Two-Button Tuxedo

About this tuxedo

This black tuxedo keeps to the classic spirit. The jacket has two buttons, satin-faced peak lapels that run long and rise toward the shoulder, and a generous cut with natural shoulders and a hem long enough to cover the seat, so it is very comfortable when you stand for long or sit through a banquet. The black cloth is flat, with two neatly flapped hip pockets. Underneath is a white wing-collar shirt with a row of black buttons down the chest and a black bow tie. The matching straight trousers fall over polished leather dress shoes.

This classic relaxed cut suits you if you have a fuller build or simply prefer comfort to a close fit. Mon Amie suggests it for a wedding, a formal family party or an evening event, keeping the white shirt with black buttons, the black bow tie and the polished leather shoes as shown in the photo.

Even with a relaxed cut, the suit must still fit you at the decisive points: the shoulder line, the chest and the sleeve length. Mon Amie takes full measurements of these, helps you choose a black cloth with a suitable drape, sews a baste, then fits and adjusts it until it feels well fitted and still comfortable when you wear it.
