Black Tie – Code for the Evening
The tuxedo has its roots in the Victorian Era. Originally designed as an informal replacement for tailcoats worn in Victorian England, the coats were worn with the normal evening accompaniments at stag dinners. During the Edwardian era the tuxedo gained popularity to the point that after World War I the tuxedo coat became the standard evening dress. Today, the classic tuxedo is appropriate for all formal occasions.
The American Suit Store tuxedo is a classic, one button, single breasted coat with a satin notched lapel. 100% Wool. You can choose between a standard waist band trouser or an adjustable waist band trouser. Made in the USA.

The Wall Street Journal announces the Return of the Bow Tie
In an article in today’s Wall Street Journal, writer William Lyons tells us of a new generation that has rediscovered a classic, the bow tie.
“A few years ago, wearing a bow tie would have been perceived as something that was really nerdy and undesirable,” says Barry Tulip, design director of Savile Row tailors Gieves & Hawkes, which has dressed Sir Noël Coward and singer Bryan Ferry. “But that is exactly why people are wearing them today, as it goes against the norm and in that sense it is very desirable. We have seen a real resurgence of bow-tie wearing driven by a younger, more popular culture.”
