Great look Eliod. Love the contrast between suit and tie.

Thanks, Pliny!


I wasn't so sure about these shoes, but I was afraid black would make it too sombre/severe. What would you suggest?


Black, burgundy, navy or dark brown shoes. Basically anything other than what you're wearing right now.

Shoes r excellent IMO with that suit, just not with the black tie and the argyles and possibly not with the white shirt. chestnut shoe needs a lighter sock and non-black tie.
With that tie I agree with Anden that black shoe would b classic a la Bond

Mazel tov, Sheepy!

Elio, I think the shoes are fine with this suit. Black would work, yes, but that doesn't make your choice wrong.

From my wedding this Saturday:

1000


1000

Of particular prominence are Acridlamb's darth vader shoes and Acridpoppy's interest in the first dance.


Congratulations! You look sharp in that tux with your lovely bride.
