Black Tie
Black Tie
The terms black tie, formal and tuxedo all describe the same level of dress. These refer to a dinner suit worn with a formal shirt and bow tie. The suit must have satin on the lapel and should be a one button suit with either a peak or shawl lapel, trousers should have a satin stripe on the outside seam.
Whilst a black suit is considered the most correct, navy is traditional and usually acceptable at a black tie event.
An ivory jacket can be worn to most formal events however we feel that at a wedding it is best left to the wedding party.
Velvet and Brocade jackets offer a stylish alternative, perfect for the groom or for wear at high end black tie functions.
Peppers offers comprehensive options for black tie events.
