Presented for the black-tie jury’s consideration is the case of Stephen Ozcomert, an attorney from Decatur, Georgia. To look his very best at formal affairs and when performing on stage as a part-time classical singer, Mr. Ozcomert employed The Black Tie Guide and the knowledgeable staff at Custom Clothing of Atlanta to commission a made-to-measure three-piece tuxedo. Said tuxedo features the following details:

  • classic peak lapels
  • single-button closure
  • flap-less besom pockets
  • grosgrain facing
  • low-cut evening waistcoat of matching grosgrain
  • impeccable fit

To complement the dinner suit, Mr. Ozcomert further obtained a custom-made formal shirt from the aforementioned tailors, wholecut calfskin oxfords by J.M. Weston and a self-tie faille bow tie.

  1. If the charges are that his outfit has a classic and timeless style, fits impeccably, and is worn extremely well, I would conclude that he is guilty on all counts.

  2. Very nice, indeed! The lower gloss of the grosgrain lapels is a very nice element on this suit – let the amazing tailoring speak, without drowning it out. The break on the pants, really balances everything nicely, and those shoes are striking. The whole rig makes you look both mature and athletic. Spot on, sir. Spot on.

  3. Looks great. The only problem, at least from the angle in which the picture was taken, is that the jacket is a bit too long.
