One missing event, New Years Eve! While it’s not exactly required to be formal, formality is definitely supported as it’s a celebration of history, and a celebration of the new year. Requires a bit of courage, but worth it. As a 16 year old with 3 tailcoats, I can assure you, people get used to it.
I wear white tie for New Year's Eve every year also. Most events I go to A lot of men don't even wear coats and ties but everyone knows that I am celebrating something special.
You may have forgotten to mention that there is still one profession in the world where white tie appearances are still frequent - a classical musician in an international orchestra, or solo classical musician who may choose to wear one for his recitals/concerts.
This information is wonderful. One thing, prior to filming, have an assistant look you over to make absolutely sure there is no bits of lint, wrinkles, creases on whatever you happen to be wearing and no scuffs on shoes. To me, these details can make or break the look one is trying to achieve.
I’m 14 years old, turning 15 on August the 13th... and i LOVE classic men’s wear. I wear suits, and own both Black and White tie. And yes, i can tie my own bow tie. But my question is: can i wear balck and white tie as a 15 (14) year old?
If you find yourself getting invited to (or indeed, hosting) black-tie or white-tie events: yes, by all means! The age guidelines we mentioned in the video were just that--guidelines. For those who appreciate classic menswear, do their research, and strive to pull off formal ensembles with attention to detail, age is a secondary concern. :) Thanks for watching and commenting! - Preston
You can make any choice you’d like. If you do, own it like a baller. Just recognize you may come to regret it later in life, but hey, that’s all part of growing up.
I live in Italy, and black tie is usually seen only for weddings or high-class evening events, while white tie is all but forgotten, only used if you're going to be received in an audience by the Pope - which requires a white tie ensemble with a BLACK waistcoat, BTW. As for the amusing comment "if a boy cannot tie his own bowtie, then he should not wear a tuxedo", well I laughed pretty hard because I'm almost 50 but I'm the only one among my friends and relatives who can actually tie a bowtie LOL
I shall be attending a cruise next summer, and it includes four formal nights. I am quite young (as in under 18), and I feel a very distinct motivation to attain a tuxedo, despite the likelihood of outgrowing it. I have always held an interest in classic menswear, and I would like to believe that I wear such as well as my budget will allow.

he's explained about some specific body fit issues he has due to his disability. i guess that makes it hard for him to get the fits just right. and also that the slim fit of the modern era not only does he not care for, but doesn't really fit his physique and proportions either. still it seems on his existing clothes if the waist was taken in a little and the legs taken in a little the fit would look more right.
A question: I'm 13 y/o right now, but I already know how to tie a bow tie, I learned it for a winter prom in school. Was it very wrong to wear a black tie outfit there?(it was in the evening and I learned about black tie outfit before)
No. When it was my prom a couple years ago, I wore a semi-formal suit, but I saw some guys wearing full on black tie tuxedoes. My tip is, do what you like. If wearing a black tie tux makes you feel good, by all means wear one. When you get older, around early to mid 20’s, you will need some business suits / black tie tuxedoes. Although, it’s more likely you will use business suits
Question. Now I know as a general rule but according to you guys. evening, where either starts at Sunset or 6 PM, which ever comes first? Here’s a question for you if your event is overall during the day, but it ends in the evening how do you dress for the morning or for the evening? and you’re not bringing a change of clothes meaning your changing from morning to eveningwear? Do you have an explicit video on a morning dress code about the stroller suit? I know you have it for the equivalent to white tie, but do you have the equivalent video to black tie?
Good explain..i just want to know ..do tuxedo were tailcoat before its now similar today like normal suit jacket today..coz some shop sell same tailcoat tuxedo buat no U-shape waistcoat and no stripe lining both side pants...looking forward new video explain tailcoat tuxedo..thanks
I find myself preferring the tuxedo to a normal suit. I’m in my late 60’s and have worn tuxes pretty much my whole adult life. For me, it’s easier to put the tux on, insert the studs and links (always wear double cuffs!), tie up the bow, button on the braces and put the cummerbund on. Included are the shoes and I can put the whole garment on in just under 20 minutes and then will detail it. Most of the ladies in my ward appreciate that I dress up and love my bow ties (yes I wear more than just black) and the other men don’t say much, but secretly admire me for being willing to dress up formal for church. I often get asked where I get my stuff and that’s indeed high praise. I harbor a desire that we men go back to dressing up like they did in the early 20th century even though most of us don’t have dirty jobs to really make the changing of clothes seem like a big deal. I just think that we need to do it so that we don’t have to look sloppy. I consider short sleeves an abomination. But if we do abandon the casual look and start dressing formally we will be doing ourselves a big favor because we will start taking many things more seriously than we do now. And that’s how we will actually achieve the greatness that should be ours. Elections help but it is also up to us to bring about a different attitude towards our daily lives that will really make the difference. And dressing formally is just one part of that attitude change.
It seems the Tuxedo had historical correlations to the bourgeois class of the Industrial Revolution. However as the bourgeois fragmented into what might be dubbed the brand as attributed to corporate structure then regalia seems to be added to the classic Tuxedo so as to distinguish the group from within the broader class structure which has all but vanished into forms of identity politics as trends within political economies of scale.
In Finland at universities, students and professors are expected to wear white tie during big and important occasions, then we also carry three ropes on our chests, one for the university, one for the Area where we are from and one for our specific area of research.
I have a Great Gatsby Theme event. I have noticed white tie and black tie dress intermixed. I am wondering where i can find a nice white tie dress tailcoat jacket. And yes this would be taking place after sundown.
I wonder, in cases when you are not actually invited such as a bar, can you wear a tuxedo ( i am assuming a more upscale cocktail bar )? You see Bond wearing tuxedos or dinner jackets at places like casinos. Or does the place have to state that it prefers black tie?
I have traditional tuxedos, a couple of tails. Your recitation of the history is correct. Most men do not known when it is appropriate to wear a tuxedo. Most men do not own tuxedos as well. It matters to the women, greatly. I also have top hats.
In Sweden the tuxedo is associated with parties (with cocktail dresses for women). And as such many still consider it inappropriate to wear in church and at weddings. But of course etiquette rules aren't really strict, and due to american influence tuxedo weddings are sometimes occuring.
I'm going to a Gatsby Roaring 20's New Years Eve event, would it be appropriate to wear a tux or should I stick to a suit? DRESS CODE: Dress to impress. Flapper, roaring 20s, zoot suits encouraged. Otherwise, semi-formal and/or cocktail attire required.
Yeah, it's especially hard to avoid the sunlight when it never goes dark during the summer months in places far enough away from the equator, like in the northernmost parts of Alaska, Canada and Scandinavia.
If you're familiar with Tom Tierney drawings ,than you know what I'm asking when I inquire over measurements and proper fit of traditional tailored suits (not shrunken suits),can you please tell me if you have a link to a video on this?And wearing ascotts as well?
Would you please explain if it is appropriate, if stated white or black tie on the invitation, to wear full dress army/navy, etc uniform of any branch and country? How does it appear if to substitute?
I think the Gentleman's Gazette is great. I think your heart is in the right place. But, for goodness' sake, use a lint brush or roller before you step in front of the camera. Anything worth wearing is worth wearing well.
Hello Raphael and Preston how are both of you also do you guys have any suggestions as starter brands for fashion that will not break the bank but will still be quality
Because it was an hollywood misrepresentations also back then nobody wears them so i better stick to the classic And why bother get a special evening shirt and studs while it just going to be covered by a necktiw
In the USA, NO ONE wears white-tie, and black-tie events are few and far between. Of course, there are proms, with the pre-pubescent wild colors and, these days, not even a bow tie. And there are no operas in Kentucky, I think.
If a gentleman gets invited to an American wedding before noon and the invitation says ‘black tie’, ought he to comply? Is quietly wearing a morning suit or stroller (without being loud about it or ‘correcting’ anyone else) likely to be seen as a snub?
I respectfully suggest that you replace the bow and have the bow and the edge of the sole edges be re died and properly re sculpted and buffed. I can understand that Allen Edmonds owners would rather refurbish the shoes that they already own. I've done that with my own Allen Edmonds. I've also had the inner parts of the shoes fitted with more comfortable parts on the interior of the shoe. I'm a big fan Church's and Kilgour French Stanbury. They fit like a pillow on the first wearing.
In a Finnish sauna it is very clear that all men are created equal. (Or not ;-)) It used to be like that with the tuxedo. No medals, orders, chains or ribbons as on tails. Plain and simple. But I've seen a photo of the Crown Prince of Denmark in a tuxedo with medals and orders. He is as much a gentleman as anyone can be so I guess he can change the rules to his liking. But I don't think the rest of you should follow. Oh! And if you ever end up at the Nobel banquet be sure to wear white tie. And if you are a doctor from any faculty be sure to have your collar embroidered properly.
Sometimes I just don't think GG knows what they're talking about. Especially when the tux being modeled is peppered with lint. A simple brush through with a lint brush would have solved that problem. When wearing black tie, the details are important.
@@heinzguderianbutmoreyounge9659 I'm a straight up wing tip kind of guy and I have been since I was a kid I even have a pair of casual wing tips (2 dress black and reddish brown too). I also rather like saddle shoes and Tony Lama cowboy boots. My favorite sneakers are classic canvas and Vulcanized rubber. The only sneaker ever to look better with age.
Of course, it's totally appropriate to wear a tuxedo when doing a video about wearing a tuxedo.
