Two ways to wear a dinner jacket: Classically edgy or rock ‘n roll?

A dinner jacket provides many opportunities to shape intriguing party outfits. Some may say that there are only a few ways to wear a dinner jacket “correctly”. This is true, in certain contexts and situations. If you are attending an event with a tuxedo or black tie dress code, the importance of the dress code should be understood. Find inspiration including corduroy dinner jackets, which will certainly fit the bill.

Break the tuxedo rules (correctly)

With background knowledge, it is easier to adapt your outfit to the occasion. We dare to say that the man who chooses to purchase a corduroy dinner jacket, wears it with a lot of self-perception, humility and knowledge. The tuxedo is a steadfast garment, forever associated with tales and stories of red carpet events and Las Vegas. A dependable tip is to find a blazer in a dark, toned-down colour, unless it is a white, summer tuxedo. The quintessential accessory with a dinner jacket is a healthy portion of humility.

A moss green dinner jacket is a classically occurring variant of the original. When paired with tuxedo trousers and a shirt, this combination can function at a relatively formal occasion. Patent leather pumps are the most traditional shoes to pair with a tuxedo, even if they are not well known amongst men today. If you do not feel comfortable with pumps, utilise a pair of laced, patent leather shoes.

The colour of the dinner jacket invites tailoring anarchy and a pinch of rock ‘n roll to the table. A pair of Chelsea boots, black jeans and a black t-shirt steers you far away from the standard opera attire, but is more in the purview of the Brit Awards red carpet. If you have an eye for details, then a wallet chain is the perfect accessory.
