  • Decoding Formal Dress Codes
    publié le 18/11/2015 à 07:55

    We finish our series of tailoring tips by helping you to decode the various dress codes that exist. What should you do when an invitation dictates ‘smart-casual’? Would chinos be appropriate for business and the workplace? Find out the answers to these and more here.

    Black Tie: Worn for events after 6:00p.m. For men, the elements of black tie are a suit (of black or midnight blue wool) in which the jacket lapels and trouser braid are of silk or other contrasting material, a white dress shirt, a black bow-tie, an evening waistcoat or cummerbund and black dress shoes. Black tie optional – A black tie optional or black tie invited gives you the option of wearing a dinner suit or formal dress, but it should clue you into the formality of the event; meaning a dark suit and tie would be your other option.

    White Tie (or full dress, evening dress, full evening dress; slang top hat and tails or white tie and tails, tail suit, tails): The chief components are the black dress coat commonly known as an evening tailcoat, white bow tie, white waistcoat and starched wing collar shirt. As evening dress, white tie is traditionally considered correct only after 6:00p.m. The equivalent formal attire for daytime events is called morning dress.

    This is the daytime formal dress code, consisting chiefly for men of a morning coat, waistcoat and striped trousers.  Men may also wear a popular variant where all parts (morning coat, waistcoat and trousers) are the same colour/material, often grey and usually called ‘morning grey’ to distinguish it.

    In the daytime (before 6:00p.m.), the semi-formal code requires for men a black tail-less coat with formal (striped or checked) trousers. This combination is a less formal version of morning dress – which features a longer, cutaway morning coat. This semi-formal ensemble is sometimes referred to as a ‘stroller’ in North America. For evening wear, the corresponding code is black tie.

    This is also called international business attire or Western business attire and as a dress code it is typified by a suit and necktie. On the scale of formality, informal attire is more formal than casual but less formal than semi-formal. It is more presentational than semi-casual, but offers more room for personal expression than semi-formal dress. Informal should not be confused with casual, not even smart casual — in loose common usage, many people refer to informal dress as semi-formal or formal and formal dress (in the technical sense; that is, white tie, black tie and similar) as very formal.

    Smart Casual: Smart casual is an ill-defined dress code that is generally neat yet informal attire. The locality, type of event, context or culture constitutes the various interpretation of the dress code and therefore the designating of certain clothing pieces as smart casual is disputed, for example jeans.

    Business casual is an ad hoc dress code in professional and white-collar workplaces in Western countries. Clothing that falls under the category of business casual includes chinos, blazers, as well as short-sleeved polo shirts and long-sleeved shirts. Here at A Suit That Fits Ireland we do offer dye to match chinos. With offices now in Dublin, Cork and Belfast, book in and let us tailor you some amazing bespoke attire: www.dressforau.com
