Dinner suit

So it's time to wear black tie for a special occasion. Whenever a man puts on a smart dinner suit it shows, he looks like a part from the latest James Bond film. Thankfully now-a-days it's a lot easier to find a stylish and affordable tuxedo online. There are many retailers from famous high street brands such as Marks and Spencer and John Lewis through to online retailers such as MyTuxedo who sell dinner suits.

Remember a dinner suit should feature all of the following items:

* JACKET – a dinner suit jacket with ribbed silk facings on a shawl collar or on a peaked.

* TROUSER – a pair of trousers with silk braids covering the outer seams.

* CUMMERBUND – a black cummerbund or low-cut waistcoat.

* DRESS SHIRT – a white dress shirt with a marcella front and either a wing or turndown collar.

* BOW TIE – a black ribbed silk (self-tied) bow tie matching the lapel facings.

* SHOES – black shoes in patent leather. Black dress socks, usually silk or fine wool.

* ACCESSORIES – including smart cufflinks, silk handkerchief and braces.

You'll look just like James Bond in your new dinner suit - smart, sophisticated and very cool.
