    Shoes to Wear with Ivory Dinner Jacket

    I know black patent leather or velvet smoking slippers are the most appropriate choices to wear with a tuxedo or DJ. Are there any other choices? I prefer loafers to lace ups as I usually find them more comfortable. Any thoughts on these...

    Advice on Ivory Dinner Jacket for Wedding

    Just ordered the ivory DJ with the self-face wide shawl and went with white MOP buttons and opted for a full canvas. Will report on how it turns out!

    Propercloth MTM shirt fit check/advice

    Would’ve helped to asses if you had ironed first, nonetheless I think the fit is pretty good. Personally, think if anything you could take it in more at the hips. Shoulders could perhaps be a touch wider but if they aren’t restricting your movement, then NBD.

    Suitsupply - Napoli / Lazio fit advice?

    As is, I agree that the Napoli fits better. On both jackets you seem to have some pulling/wrinkling just under the right side of your chest. I'm assuming the tailor can take care of that but that seems to be the main issue on both and is less pronounced on the Napoli.
