Subject: What kind of cuts of men's suits are popular today?

Written By: 90s Guy on 10/16/21 at 12:23 pm

Like a look that says swanky, but stylish?
Like a "corporate, but cool" look?

Blue suits still seem popular, with relatively narrow collars on the jacket and narrow trousers.

I hope that “Goodfellas shirt collars” come back in style. They were the epitome of style and class.  8)

I love a black blazer for dressy/casual with nice blue jeans but not a whole black suit. Too much of an undertaker or priest/rabbi look. Some black Armani suits are nice, even with black T shirt,  but you have to be like a Keanu Reeves type to pull it off.

Of course. At least the Sean Connery and Roger Moore Bonds did. I don't know about the subsequent Bonds, they don't count.

Also, to put into context, I do wish to see the latest Bond movie "No Time To Die", but I am in no hurry to see it.

Is this a Tuxedo?

The terminology I would use to describe his coat is "Raspberry Velveteen Double-Breasted Dinner Jacket", so I don't think that qualifies as a tuxedo...  :-\\

A cocktail jacket, for a Dry Martini, shaken not stirred?

Since you pointed out that it's velveteen, and I now notice there is no satin, it is clearly not a tuxedo.
