Black Shawl Collar Dinner Jacket
New & Lingwood · £995
Worth being NRY provisional
Semi-canvassed in the Savile Row way, in 100% wool Barathea with faille lapels and a single covered button. Semi-canvassing is the part that matters and the part most dinner jackets at this money skip: the chest is built rather than glued, so it moulds to you instead of bubbling after a few wearings. Buy once and it outlasts the invitations.
- For

- Not for
