Blakon | Tuxedo Suit Shawl Lapel White

Shawl curve. Waistcoat high. Evening long.

The jacket sits close through the chest without pinning your arms, so you can raise a glass without the shoulder lifting with you. A double-breasted waistcoat holds the shirt flat, which keeps the front clean when you sit down for the toast. The trouser breaks once over a dress shoe and stays there. Three pieces, one uninterrupted white line from shoulder to hem.

Shawl Lapel That Keeps the Front Uncluttered The rounded lapel runs in one unbroken curve down to the closure, so nothing interrupts the line under evening light. It reads calmer than a peak without losing any of the formality.

Waistcoat That Lets You Open the Jacket It closes high and stays put through the night. Four hours in, you can unbutton the jacket and still look finished rather than undone.

A White Suit That Earns More Than One Night Worn complete it belongs at black tie; the jacket alone carries summer wedding suits and receptions just as well.

Structured Build That Holds Its Shape A smooth suiting cloth with a quiet surface sheen and very little stretch, cut over a lightly structured shoulder and a full lining so the jacket hangs clean rather than clinging. Seams are pressed flat and the closure sits without pulling, which is what keeps the front panel smooth once you move.

Wear it with a white dress shirt, a black bow tie and polished black oxfords; a morning suit shirt and silk tie take it into daytime.
