I'm getting married in about a month and a half, and I decided to get a bespoke tuxedo made for the event. I'm almost through the process and go in for my final fitting in a few weeks. Here's what I'm working with:
The details:
I've got a shirt being made as well, and it's going to be a spread collar, flat front with studs, something like this:
My question is I'm looking for advice on what type of bow tie to get for this ensemble. Would black still work (I'm sure it would) even with a midnight blue tux? What about the fabric type? I've gone satin on the lapels and details, but could I wear a grosgrain bow tie?
Never purchased a bow tie before, so suggestions would be appreciated, as well as some preferred retailers.
Thanks!
The details:
- Midnight blue, Loro Piana fabric Super 120s
- Shawl Lapel in satin
- 1 button, double vented, jetted pockets
