dress code
 

I have been invited out on a bash tonight, described as "Black Tie", This does not bother me as I happen to own the prerequisite apparel. However I have been chatting with a couple of friends who advise me that they were just going to wear "lounge suits".

Do I go in the monkey suit and show my friends how it should be done. Or just wear a sober suit and blend in with my mates.

Do it with Style :D

Follow the invite & do the "Black Tie" thing :D

Black tie sir!


.

It's got to be BT everytime.

Wear your leathers (with the black tie, of course). Bring the helmet and gloves for added effect.

Wear the penguin suit :thumbsup:

or you could pretend you're a Jock, and wear a kilt :shock:

BT

Cummerbund also Mr.Wilky? Very nice too mate.
:wink:

of course. My own personal tip with this sort of dress is the trouser wasteband is one size too big, that way it is not uncomfortable should the pigging get excessive. Nice red braces to make sure they stay up until you have expanded enough to manage it on your own.

go dressed in nothing but the black tie :lol:

BT

got to be BT got to get your monies worth out of it :lol:

Black Tie
 

It is always best to be over dressed than underdressed.

Wear your YMCA waterproofs and a BT... :lol:

Bugger that, i never go to Black Tie events becuase i cant be bothered to dress up i stuff i dont have nor want.

is it a funeral ?

Re: dress code
 

Just wear your YMCA waterproofs mate... You'll be right ;) :lol: :lol: :lol:

Black tie but wear a red one if you see what I mean, black tie is pretty miserable so liven it up a tad.

I like the sound of 'if the pigging gets excessive' :lol: When I worked in Wolverhampton I learned a new word - 'pogged'. As in 'I'm pogged'. Good innit.

Got to be the DJ or the full Prince Charlie if you're a Scot.

Leave the loutish behaviour of wearing of lounge suits to black tie events to the likes Gordon Brown (okay it was a white tie event, but you get the idea) .

just out of interest how many of you lot actually own a Dinner suit?

I'm a proud owner of one that i used to wear when i went to my dad ladies nights for the masonic lodge he was a part of. And at 24 i guess there arnt many other people my age that own one.

.....
 

Wear a top hat, cane & cloak too...full 'Ripper' cossie with doctors bag too.

Should get a few laughs? :wink:

I thought everybody had one... No ?

OK, I also have a selection of "black" and "non black" ties, including a flashing one :lol:

.

not got the flashing one but i do have a selection of bowties also along with a couple of colourful waistcoats and a **** with the nice bit down the front but the the rest is covered in multicoloured balloons:p:D
