Hello StyleForum.net,
This is my first thread on here, so excuse any lacking in my knowledge of the site. Anyways, my high school Homecoming dance is coming up relatively soon. Last year I wore a bow tie, button-down shirt, pants, loafers, etc. This time around I've decided I want to look a little classier, so I bought a $22 red-wine-colored ascot tie (cravat) from Etzy.com. The color matches my date's dress. Now, I'm wondering - after reading different things online about the formality of the ascot, example outfits, etc - the basics and essentials of the tie; what to wear with it (jacket, pocket square, pants, collar, etc); and general things about how to make this outfit work. Some things I must note: I want to wear a brown loafer, any pant that would work with the outfit, any jacket that would work, a white shirt?, a gold pocket square (to match my date's necklace), and of course said ascot.
TL;DR = Please give me as much information on the ascot (cravat) as you can; tips for this outfit to work; any stores (I live in the Metro-Atlanta area) that sell nice men's clothes; general tips for high-end men's fashion.
Thank you,
Tyler.
