Hello, can you tell me what type of dinner jackets are the most fashionable this season? Im not sure what type of neck cut to go for or how many buttons on the jacket. Thanks.

Hi Ryan,

The style on trend this season is the shawl collar.

I personally believe that the perfect dinner suit should be in a dark colour with a jigger button. You ideally should not wear a dinner jacket with two or three buttons - this in my book should be a criminal offence! The collar should be in gros grain silk which is ribbed and runs horizontally and the trouser should have side adjusters never belt loops.

From our collection I would recommend the Mayfair Black Evening Suit Jacket, it has a single breasted button with peak lapels.

Alternatively, we offer a made to measure service and our Broad Street store specialises in this service. It will cost a little bit more but I feel that it is a great investment and you will receive many compliments from men and woman alike for years to come.

Kind regards,

Anthony
