The classic tux by Cary Grant's tailor -- you can't go wrong with Savile Row's Kilgour French Stanbury. Tagged 48L, this single breasted, peak lapel tuxedo is in perfect condition, still with the tag on the arm -- never worn. The trousers have yet to be hemmed, and carry the satin stripe -- this being Kilgour, everything is present and correct.

There is another label (not pictured) for Boyd's of Philadelphia, which was (is) a Barney's level retailer in the States that carried Kilgour.

Measurements are:

Back, shoulder seam to seam: 19.5"
Under arms: 24"
Waist: 23"
Sleeves: 27"
Length (under collar to bottom): 33"

Trousers:
Waist: 21"
Length (unhemmed): 38"

The wool is deep black and matte, the lapels are satin.
