Dinner Jacket and Tuxedo Hire at DAPPER

EVENING AND DRESS SUIT HIRE

“BLACK TIE” remains the standard for formal evening attire and here at DAPPER we specialise in tuxedo hire, dinner suit hire and black tie hire (all of which are different ways of saying the same thing!)

Sometimes referred to as a dinner suit, dinner jacket, DJ, tuxedo or evening wear, essentially they are all the same.

Worn with a dress shirt with either a wing or regular collar, bow tie, cummerbund or waistcoat, the choice of suit will be based on your preferred style of lapel and front button arrangement. 

Here at DAPPER Formalwear for Men our suit hire or rent range includes designs with peak lapel, shawl collar or notch lapel, one or two button fastening and single or double breasted options. But that’s not all! We can also offer you a choice of dinner suit fabrics, from the classic plain black to self-stripe patterns for something to set you apart from the crowd.

WHITE TIE AND TAILS outfits are the most elegant and understated gents formal wear attire. Traditionally worn at state or diplomatic banquets and livery company functions, “white tie” consists of a black evening tail coat and trousers, worn with fully matching white wing-collared shirt, backless waistcoat and bow tie. Evening Tails have also grown in popularity for late afternoon or evening weddings (when it can be personalised with a change of waistcoat and tie colours).

To visualise the look, think Downton Abbey (dressing for dinner) or Strictly Come Dancing (performing Waltzes or American Smooth).

EVENING WEAR PURCHASE

If your desire is to buy or replace your own black tie outfit, then DAPPER's superb range of evening wear from some of Europe’s top formal wear specialist manufacturers, off the peg, altered to specification or ordered to your bespoke requirements will impress  the most discerning wearer. Your choice of style, whether it be classic fit or fashionable slim or tailored fit, can be made more individual by selecting the shape of the lapel, pockets or lining colour to your own specification. All available to order in 8-10 weeks (standard) or 4-5 weeks (express).
