60-second style: Embellished dinner jackets

60-second style: Embellished dinner jackets

We're noisy advocates of black tie. There's just something very special about the dinner jacket (or tuxedo in the US) that immediately brings to mind old school glamour and special celebrations. We think of the Rat Pack, the Oscars and various other awards ceremonies where the great and the good (with some reprobates thrown in too) party into the night, the disco ball lights dancing off their black grosgrain silk lapels and silk-striped trousers.

All very romantic, all very traditional. But what if you wanted to where something that set you apart from the sea of black tuxedo jackets, something that enabled you to better voice your character? At Favourbrook, we've long championed individual expression, which is why we started creating embellished dinner jackets right from day one. Some people just want to make a splash, so our dinner jackets are the proverbial spring boards.

Still cut using the very same and elegant dinner jacket block, each season we create a number of different embellished dinner jackets around a floral theme. Vibrant but never gaudy, our embellished dinner jackets are full of colour and confidence, perfect for special occasions. With both silk and linen styles, we have created a capsule that is replete with options for every time of the year, too.
