I was just invited--on a first date actually--to a gala this Friday. Since I was asked, I didn't press her for a lot of details about the event but found out via google that it is a wine auction/and $500 plate charity dinner where black tie is requested. My date said nothing about it being black tie...honestly, I don't think she realizes it is that type of event.
So here's the problem: my dinner jacket is at the tailor and I won't be able to get it back before the event. I begged, but my tailor said it just wasn't possible for him to get it done before Friday.
What do I wear?!
I don't own a black suit. I wear my dinner jacket when it's black tie but I obviously can't break into my tailor to pick up the disassembled jacket.
I have a dark solid charcoal suit and I could pull out a black solid tie and spread collar shirt, but I have a terrible feeling I will look out of place and feel ridiculous.
Any suggestions?
