Bought these classic looking Gucci loafers in Italy. Can I style them with a Tuxedo and/or midnight dinner jacket w/tuxedo pants. I also have a paid of Oxfords as well but prefer the loafers. What do folks think about no socks these days? Thanks in advance.

A tuxedo without socks seems very silly and incongruous.

I'm not a fan of the 'dressy shoe no sock' look that's getting its 15 minutes now. Aside from looking too Instagrammy for my taste, it looks really uncomfortable and I did observe a younger colleague at a cocktail event off to the side, treating his blisters from wearing tassel loafers sockless. His feet looked leprous.
You could go with no-show socks of course, but that point, it feels like you're starting to jump through a lot of hoops to achieve a supposedly effortless, laid-back look, no?
