Tail-Coat Jacket

The tailcoat is considered the most elegant attire of all evening wear and perhaps the most delicate to get right – white bow tie comes with strict dress code expectancies.
How it’s made
Tailcoat made in worsted wool with classic detail is exquisitely for special occasions with silk lapels, and covered buttons with a single vent with or without pleating at back. The tailcoat waistline typically mirrors the wearer’s natural waistline but unlike other jackets the coat fronts – and corresponding white waistcoat – end shortly below the waistline. A center vent that rises up to the waistline divides the coat’s skirt into two “tails” which originally inspired the nicknames swallow-tail coat and claw-hammer tailcoat. The tails generally extend down to the bend of the knee in a straight line with a gentle curve at the bottom.
How to combine it
Pair the tailcoat with high waisted trousers with double braiding at sides, white shirt and waistcoat with white gloves to complete the outfit. While talking about shoes, pumps made from fine and shiny patent leather are preferred. Most formal pumps are decorated with a silk grosgrain bow. Cufflinks and studs are not optional but a must-have accessory while attending a white tie event.
