Going out for a "fancy" night out on the town? Try a sharply tailored jacket in a dark neutral fabric, like this charcoal wool by Loro Piana. Layer it with a matching vest - worn open here - for added warmth and visual interest.

As a general guideline, eveningwear should have a darker, more subtle color palette - which is why I like the pop of these white jeans (which I wear year-round).

Charcoal peak-lapel jacket +waistcoat (part of 3-piece suit), and black/white mini-gingham shirt all by Michael Andrews Bespoke (custom made). White jeans by Helmut Lang (size 34). Brown alligator belt by Ralph Lauren Purple Label. White linen pocket square cut & sewn myself. Penny loafers by Ferragamo.

It's difficult to dress like a douchebag and dress old at the same time, though, isn't it? Douchebaggery is youthful.

Precisely. A man in a tweed jacket with elbow patches can be a dick, a twat, or a blowhard, but rarely a douche.

I take a special measure of comfort in this knowledge.

The face of Abercrombie's CEO looks messed up. Does he have some sort of condition or disease I should know about before I put him on blast?

It's great how the white of his teeth is accented by the white of his "flip-flops" (I'm told it is no longer cool to call them thongs).
