BKT50 Shawl Collar Dinner Jacket in Wool Herringbone - Cyprus

HOW IT FITS + HOW TO WEAR IT:

• Our dinner jackets have the same fit and construction as our BKT50 suit jackets and tuxedo jackets, but with details and styling suitable for your most formal of occasions.  
  
• What is a dinner jacket and how is it different from a tuxedo? It depends a little on who you talk to. The terms tuxedo and dinner suit/jacket both refer to formal eveningwear, with tuxedo being the popular term in America and dinner suit or jacket being used in the UK. Here at Brooklyn Tailors, we use the term dinner jacket to refer to a formal eveningwear jacket that is made from a separate fabric that contrasts with the trouser, as opposed to a tuxedo, which we consider to be a formal jacket and trouser both made from the same cloth.
• We typically recommend pairing your dinner jacket with any of our black tuxedo trousers, or our black suit trousers.
  
• Green has become a mainstay in men's formal wear in recent years, and for good reason.  Pair this one with a white tuxedo shirt, bow tie, black trousers, and all the trimmings, and you'll be looking your very best when its time to dress to the nines.
