Black Double-Breasted Tuxedo

About this tuxedo

This tuxedo keeps the full spirit of classic formal wear: a jet black body with six buttons arranged in two balanced rows, and sharp V-shaped peak lapels faced in glossy satin running down the chest to create a line that slims the figure. The satin-trimmed jetted pockets sit flush in the body with no flaps, keeping the front flat and clean. The smooth wool holds its shape at the shoulder and catches the light softly rather than glaring. A white shirt with a wing collar and black studs, a satin bow tie and a white pocket square folded flat complete the look.

This is the suit for the most formal evenings: an evening wedding, a thank-you banquet, an awards ceremony, or a gala night when you walk on stage. The styling is very clean: a white shirt, a black bow tie, a white pocket square, polished black leather shoes and long black socks. The double-breasted fastening is already the focal point, so you need no added pattern. Unbutton when you sit and button up again when you stand, and the jacket returns to its full shape.

Mon Amie makes each suit individually to your measurements. Our master tailor, originally from Hue, checks the slope of your shoulders, your chest and the buttoning point so that the two fronts overlap in exactly the right place, the detail that decides how elegant a double-breasted jacket looks. The wool and satin are chosen from the tailor's Italian and English cloth library. Come to the showroom and we will measure you, try the sample and adjust until it feels right when you wear it.
