The black tuxedo is a timeless classic. The following picture shows a contemporary shawl lapel tuxedo at the left and a classic wedding tailcoat tuxedo with a traditional peak lapel.

The first tuxedo shown above is an interesting option if you’re looking for a classic cut wedding tuxedo jacket.

In reality, the cut is larger on the torso and waist than usual slim or even modern fit as mentioned on customer reviews of this product.

Another recurring opinion from past customers who bought this tuxedo jacket is the great craftsmanship on both wool quality and garment tailoring. It’s made of extra-fine Italian wool produced in a notorious Lanificio di Tollegno wool mill in Italy.

This manufacturer is located in the USA, therefore, encouraging local economy.

This tuxedo variation is definitely the most sophisticated and distinguished.
