Whatever you choose to do, veer towards getting something custom made.

 

I'm a fan of midnight - I have a three-piece tux made with Smith Woolen's midnight blue mohair.

 

From what I've read about Ercole is that they tend to err on the traditional side of styling, especially on a first commission. Have you found that to be the case?

 

Especially with a tux I want to go more contemporary (higher armholes etc.)

Shawl midnight blue DB for maximum style points.
