Built from an acetate blend cloth, the Gramercy Black Botanical Jacquard Dinner Jacket holds a clean line. Color is the first thing people will notice.

A dinner jacket is a good pick for a holiday party with a formal dress code. Keep the shirt white and the shoes black, and you're dressed correctly. A dinner jacket lets you keep the formality of black tie while showing a little more personality than a classic black tuxedo jacket would. You're getting 45% acetate, 30% rayon and 25% wool here. Acetate adds a smooth surface. The rayon helps it hang softly.

It's cut to your measurements rather than a stock size.

Bow tie, always. It's an evening jacket, usually worn with black trousers and a bow tie. You'd wear a dinner jacket where a tuxedo fits the dress code.

If you'd like a matching piece, the Gramercy Black Botanical Jacquard cloth also comes as a tuxedo vest.
