Difficult to find an evening dress waistcoat, isn't it?
Bloody things are like hen's teeth.

Have you tried Ede & Ravenscroft?

I have no idea what that is but they sound like the tailors from the Fast Show

That's more or less them
The make pretty much all university gowns. As well as the uniforms for a few public schools.

I have indeed looked at Ede and Ravenscroft.
Unfortunately, the one I like is 175 pounds, which is a little much for a suit I wear around once a year to events where people frequently don't bother with a bow tie.

Haha, I am merely being efficient.
I'll probably have to stick with a cummerbund for now, but I am not a fan of wearing those.
( Kroney, Mon 18 Nov 2013, 16:30, Reply)

cummerbunds are for the lower orders who wear clip-on bow ties.
Such as Stunned.

He can borrow mine if he likes.

Oh, I've seen people wearing notched lapels
without a waist covering at all. Cummerbunds are fine, I'm just getting a little chubby to get away with them.

What do you want one for?
and, how are you differentiating an evening dress waistcoat from a general patterned one? or do you want a black one?

You can pay the £40 over 3 months!!!!

I'll be honest, I didn't read it
as waistcoats in general are for cunts.

hmmm
that is a different angle from the one I was going for, but it still works. 2/10.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 18 Nov 2013, 16:05, Reply)

That is not an evening dress waistcoat.
That is a black informal waistcoat for a business suit.
( Kroney, Mon 18 Nov 2013, 16:11, Reply)

I want one for my dinner jacket
So yes black and certainly not patterned. Good God, man.
( Kroney, Mon 18 Nov 2013, 16:10, Reply)

£175.

(Set your faces to Stunned Bigly, Mon 18 Nov 2013, 16:12, Reply)

If I could justify it, I'd be all over it.
Sadly I work for a company the director of which wears waistcoats with clowns on. I feel like a dinosaur at these things.

I'm having Blazer woes right now.
I want one that's a bit fashion forward but still formal.

Elbow patches are so last year.
