Tailored Shirts, tuxedos & Dinner Jacket
Nothing beats a bespoke tuxedo. Whether you’re after a classic black tux or white dinner jacket, a luxurious velvet smoking jacket or something more on trend, like a patterned tuxedo jacket you’d see on the red carpet, a bespoke tailored tuxedo allows you to design and determine every little detail and have it made to fit you perfectly.
In an ordinary bespoke suit you’re a well dressed character actor, in a tuxedo you’re the main attraction. The tux, which dates back to the late 1880s, originating in New York according to popular belief is the ultimate in formal wear. And most recently a very popular and traditional look for the person looking to make a statement in front of friends and family for their very special day. A tuxedo is normally defined as having a satin lapel on the jacket which are all tailored from darker colours. But for a bespoke custom tuxedo, again your fabric and style choices are extensive. Such as shawl, peak or notch satin lapels combined with little details like satin covered buttons and jacket (welt or double jetted) pockets for that finishing touch. With the optional matching satin strip down the side of the trousers for that complete and traditional elegance. How about a tropical tux, a more fun colourful jacket, in navy, shades of red, even greens, or how about velvet for that really luxurious feel.

FAQs
What is the difference between a tuxedo and a dinner jacket?
A tuxedo traditionally features satin details—such as satin lapels, buttons, and a satin stripe on the trousers—giving it a more classic black-tie appearance. A dinner jacket, on the other hand, is a formal jacket that can be paired with tuxedo trousers but may come in various colours or fabrics. Both are suitable for black-tie events, with tuxedos offering a more traditional look and dinner jackets allowing for a touch of personal flair.
