That combination makes for the most conservative and formal black tie outfit?
Black often DOES look shinier and "shallower" than very dark blues. Hence they don't look as dark or rich. -
Grey flannel or twill trousers with morning dress?
What are your thoughts about grey flannel or twill slacks in place of striped or houndstooth slacks as a part of a morning dress outfit? What color waistcoat (different than the vest below) would you pair with grey slacks and a black morning coat? Black or possibly dove? Thank you. -
That combination makes for the most conservative and formal black tie outfit?
"Blacker", "darker" and "richer" are definitely not synonymous. Midnight blue, even true navy blue often looks far "richer" and sometimes even "darker" than black -- even though it doesn't look "blacker." -

That combination makes for the most conservative and formal black tie outfit?

Which looks better -- a Stetson Open Road or an Akubra Campdraft with a Cattlemen's Bash?
Thanks, much, I really appreciate your informative reply. I should have asked the question: "Which do you prefer -- a Stetson Open Road or an Akubra Campdraft with a Cattlemen's Bash?" because what I actually asked obviously twisted some peoples' panties... Thanks again. -

Wearing white tie to a black tie event?
I typically go to 2-3 black tie events per year. People seem to adhere to the dress code in maybe one of them -- usually weddings. Several months ago I bought a gorgeous BB white tie outfit (trousers, tails and vest) at a local thrift shop that supports hospice. With the exception of having... -

Were double-breasted suits with vests once common?
Were double-breasted suits with vests once common? I don't think I had ever seen this combination until I saw this great colorized photo from the day after the Pearl Harbor attack in San Francisco: http://40.media.tumblr.com/c546abef2d3bf9a43b0c2955cf75a68d/tumblr_ncmy87iJpQ1u08npwo1_1280.jpg... -
Is a dark colored hat that much warmer than a light colored hat?
It's interesting to think that one would not want to wear a dark colored hat in the cold either as it would hasten the radiation of heat from one's head... -
