White Dinner Jacket With Black Shawl

About this tuxedo

This suit reverses the familiar formula: a white jacket with black lapels. The bright white body has a smooth cloth with good drape, catching stage lights in soft patches rather than glare. The black satin-faced shawl lapel curves in one line to a single button, forming a bold outline around the chest. A black-trimmed chest pocket and a straight black pocket square. Beneath goes a white shirt with a pleated front and a hand-tied black bow tie. Black straight trousers separate clearly in tone from the white jacket, making the figure look taller and leaner.

This is the suit that makes you stand out in a room full of black suits: an evening wedding, a gala, a red-carpet event, or the wedding ceremony itself if you want to do something different. Just keep three things black, the bow tie, the trousers and the shoes, and the whole look is tight enough.

Mon Amie cuts each suit individually to your measurements, because a white jacket does not forgive a crooked seam: a shoulder that falls short or a waist that is too loose is spotted at once. Our tailors check the fit on your own frame and refine it through the fittings before the suit is finished.
