This is a good idea. Or white Marcella. Or use a cummerbund, instead.Get it in black silk to match your facings or black jacquard

Thanks for the input! To my untrained eyes, I have no idea what makes contemporary look better. Can you help me expand please. I've been the same size for the past decade, since my mid 20s hahaI vote contemporary - I think it looks better and you can clean the back up with a tailor.
Also, you could go that route for the sole reasons the reason that people tend to grow not shrink overtime, and a tux should be a long term garment
I think it's funny that in some pictures one looks better than the other and vice-versa in other pictures. Can see why you're having trouble deciding. Sometimes, I wish people could post videos of them in their tuxes so we could more easily appraise. I would follow gimpwiz's suggestion and get your tailor's opinion.Crossposting from the Fit thread,

Curious if you're of a mind to ever pair this jacket with lighter colored trousers?
Yes, I have thought about it. I think it would work well with my ivory formal trousers. I've also got a pair of trousers in the works made from a dark blue linen with a floral pattern that will compliment this jacket, for those sultry Florentine evenings.Curious if you're of a mind to ever pair this jacket with lighter colored trousers?
About what I was thinking. The "sloppy" nature of the linen (and the color) seems well suited to it.Yes, I have thought about it. I think it would work well with my ivory formal trousers.
