After six, is absolutely crucial to everyman's attire! How he presents himself on the evening makes all thr difference in the world. You are so knowledgeable and gifted with pedagogy skills indeed!
Have been waiting for this video for weeks! Now we need the one for the stroller! Greetings from Nicaragua, Central America! You're doing an amazing job educating all of us on Classic Menswear.
Okey you're the only menswear youtuber i see that looks COMFORTABLE in your clothes. Effortlessly cool. Comfort is so important to style. If you feel uncomfortable you'll look it too. Would love to talk about clothing and how my Global Society for Revolutionary Empathy wants to revolutionize the fashion industry.
I think that all of your videos are very informative and interesting because my knowledge is lite when it comes to the official formal wear. Thank you very much.
Wonderful guide Prof. Iwill say the one exception to a short dinner jacket is the mess jacket, but that us a specific jacket that evolved from the tail jacket, so I say it is the exception that proves the rule
Recently came across your videos and I love them. Interesting the depth of your knowledge and your passion shows through. I watch them before bed, there's a calming, artisan quality to the videos. You seem like a man who would be into cigars, cognac, watches with actual time complications and perfumes. I'd love to see a video of yours about one of these subjects. Maybe not cognac and cigars... TH-cam doesn't like those. But definitely watches!
Thank you for your kind words Ric 😁 I am in fact a cigar aficionado 🔥 I hope to get a chance to feature some of my favorites sometime in the channel Welcome aboard sir 💯
Another educational and amazing video Proff. I learnt so much from you this year and I, of course still learning new amazing things on my own. You opened my eyes about men’s formal garments, how to wear it and what I should avoid. Thumbs up for the King of Drape 👑 I wish you Proff and all the AskOkey team a truly amazing 2024. Cheers from Spain 🥂
@@AskOkeyInc Absolutelyi will in the near future. Meanwhile it would be enlightening to see a video about how to accessorize hats, shoes, and belts with an English drape suit.
Evening Prof - I am surprised you did not cover collars. I have seen in some old pictures that men used to wear a turned up collar with formal clothes, is this appropriate in today’s age for one’s dinner ensemble?
Hi Proff another exquisite sartorial presentation. A passing comment. Grosgrain is actually pronounced GROW-GRAIN.. It's one of those peculiar English words :)
Please share a video o your purple tuxedo we have seen in your shorts and let us know the features of it and why that check trouser? Also, your views on shawl lapel on tuxedo which we see these days.. as i myself own a tuxedo with shawl lapel, which is not a bespoke. Fyi.
Do you have a video or advice for big guys? I always want to dress up with my lady for dinner but I never know where to shop/what to shop for. I’m 6’0 305.
Would you recommend a certain evening shirt with Black Tie? I am attending an event soon and wish to wear a marcella pique front shirt with a detachable wing collar derived from White Tie; would this be too formal for such an occasion?
You failed to mention footwear. A man should wear black silk knee high socks. No colored socks. The shoes should be black oxfords in either pattern leather or a whole cut shoe with a high gloss shine. An alternative are opera pumps. There is also a question as to a watch. Some people do not think you should wear a watch with black tie. I think a watch is acceptable but it should be something very simple. No sports watches. As I said the watch should be simple with a black leather watch band and the metal should match the metal of your cufflinks.
I love your channel I love what you do but I'd like to know why is it that you are the only model for the clothing line I'd like to see other sizes of models and how they can also in what you think would benefit them to look as sharp as you do or is your channel meant for men with your shape thank you and keep up the good work
So I actually must disagree with the never to wear a notch lapel tuxedo, I own one in fact. But wait, it gets worse the matching tuxedo trousers have belt loops on them. The thing is its a tuxedo from 1918, and it looks quite good. So never say never... But you probably shouldn't wear notch lapels😅.
@@AskOkeyInc Thanks so much for this lovely reply, and sending me the right way to contact you guys. I just sent an email and I'm really looking forward to working something out!
I don't understand how you are the king of drape when none of the clothes really drape. they just hang and don't move with the body which is in essence the art of draping the muscles and limbs. I agree however mostly on the dinner jacket and the lapels. this is one case where the wider lapels are both stylish and classic. i would personally wear a slimmer lapel and a dinner suit that fitted my body better.
@@avenotrius4340 It is seen as rude to the host as if you are at a nice formal event they invited you to, you shouldnt be checking the time as if you wished to leave.
@avenotrius4340 just tradition, traditionally you wouldn't wear any watch because you shouldn't be looking at time when you are enjoying your evening! Most traditionalists would argue to avoid any watch, and if you must wear a watch, keep it down to either a pocket watch of matching metals or either a minimalistic black leather dress watch.
Thanks for the additional info about etiquette. …But James Bond always wore a watch, an Omega Seamaster for the last circa 30 years, with his dinner suits. 😅. Whilst Sean Connery, wore a a Rolex Submariner. All the same, I know now to avoid a watch with a dinner suit (Unspoken Etiquette, known to “old money”, and high end professional bankers, financiers, lawyers and probably top brass military types of the old school).

I'm getting married soon and this video is exactly what I needed. Thank you Proff 🙏🙏🙏

Of course Brendon 😁
“GROSS-GRAN”
Prof. I have a Brioni, Oxford and Canali Tuxs and they all have pocket flaps 🤷♂️I have owned other Tuxs or Smoking that had no pocket flaps. 😳
@@HG-cq4gg I prefer to make them without flaps
@@AskOkeyInc ok thanks for responding.
@@HG-cq4gg Of course sir 🙏🏾

Prashant, the video of the purple dinner jacket is a Podcast due to be published in the coming week or two
Did you use the same lapel design on this dinner suit as the AskOkey double breasted jacket? So elegant… and also a very nice reference video
YES the same “SHAPE” Tim 💯
Very informative.
Do you have a video or advice for big guys? I always want to dress up with my lady for dinner but I never know where to shop/what to shop for. I’m 6’0 305.

Would you recommend a certain evening shirt with Black Tie? I am attending an event soon and wish to wear a marcella pique front shirt with a detachable wing collar derived from White Tie; would this be too formal for such an occasion?
OH NO, not at all ..
That shirt would be PROPER for WHITE TIE but I see nothing wrong in applying it to BLACK TIE
Great content!
Gracias Senor Lopez 🙌🏾

Thank you
Ho ho ho prof back with an other great video 💚
THATS RIGHT 💯😁
Hi Proff, could I wear shawl lapels 4x1, such as you own cream, but black (or midnight) with matched trousers?
@@olafpniewski8748 Of course it can be done as a full dinner suit
I love your videos Sir
Thank you Balson

You probably SHOULD NOT Danny 😅
Grosgrain is pronounced: Gro-Grain, silent S. Great video!
YUP!
Now I know 😅
Spelled grosgrain, pronounced “gro grain”.
Single shirt cuff are the norm for white tie. Though I guess also acceptable for black tie.
“Gro Gran” 😅
YES for single cuffs 💯
Do u have a store. I would love to come and get measured for five suits
Hello. Please share your email id with us and we will reach out to you at the earliest.
Single cuff should only be on a wing collar shirt! If it's got a turn down collar like you are wearing then it should have French cuffs.

S A R T O R I A L
H E R E S Y
YES 😅
It’s all good but with the greatest respect in IMHO your lapels are too wide. They’re hiding your pocket square too much. Otherwise very nice.
Wearing a notch lapel on a Black Tie jacket is not only heresy, its a blasphemous breaking of one of the 10 sartorial commandments! YOU SHALL NOT
NUFF SAID 😅
Thank you Andre 🔥

Name's Key, AskOkey.
This 🤌🏿🤣
Thanks to this video I understand that Prince Philip, who wore only notch lapel on dinner jackets, committed and heresy...
Is that right Nunzio?? 😅
Okey, do you think double breasted suits are okay for shorter muscular men?
OH ABSOLUTELY Eayala 💯
All depends on the CUT
For shorter men, the CUT must be PRECISE to suit their frame
Just to add on, a watch shouldn't be worn with a black tie ensemble either.
Is there any particular reason for that?
