The State of Black Tie: Your Observations
I'm in my sixties. My jacket stays on, even when I'm dancing. I usually dance with one lady, the one I brought and the one I go home with. Foxtrot, Rhumba, Waltz. Never in my adult life have I stood in a corner with a bunch of other dudes. When my wife wants to take a break, there is always a...- Andy57

The State of Black Tie: Your Observations
No, my apologies. I didn't realize that you were including yourself in your observation! Seriously, if you want to remove your jacket to engage in energetic activity you should, of course, do so. It's simply that under non-energetic circumstances, you would keep your jacket on. If you make your...- Andy57

It depends on your expected usage. I have a marcella front shirt with the shirt body made from a very lightweight voile. It's great in the warmer months. I also have one with the body made from some sort of regular poplin and it's fine, too. Personally, I'd recommend using the lightest weight...- Andy57

Neither did I. I prefer the cleaner look of no placket on a marcella shirt, but it's not a big enough deal to me to bother about.- Andy57

The State of Black Tie: Your Observations
It was probably a Marcella front shirt made by Hemrajani (now Divij Bespoke). Hemrajani made a couple of shirts like that for me, that is to say Marcella front with no placket. Technically, a shirt like that is meant to be white-tie, but I was not bothered by that. Budd, however, more or less...- Andy57

The State of Black Tie: Your Observations
A whole 'nuther forum... I guess, strictly speaking, this is cocktail attire. But, black tie isn't a rigid set of rules. That would be white tie. What we call black tie is really a set of party clothes. I know full well how to do correct black tie and do so when the mood strikes me. But most...- Andy57

Pitti Uomo 105 - the pictures, the styles
The polo coat I'm wearing in that photo is by Eduardo De Simone. Angel made the jacket I'm wearing under the polo. If my jacket is an indication, Angel's polo coat is likely to be superb.- Andy57
