Synonymous to the
style and comfort, mens smoking jacket have come a long way over the last many
years. Given that its construction is similar to that of a dinner jacket or
blazer, the newer and contemporary version of the smoking jacket is purely
meant to be worn outside home. However, it is usually made of velvet, thus it
can be worn at home too while smoking a pipe, cigarette or cigar. It is important for you to know that wearing
them at home is relatively less comfortable. Such jackets can be easily identified because
they resemble more like a dinner style jacket then a dressing gown. Instead of
a tie belt or sash, it will fasten with ornamented buttons.
Conventionally, these jackets can be
worn for the following:
·
For events such
as black tie which are less formal in comparison to traditional black tie
events. This can be a red carpet event, a work holiday party or any event where
majority of men might not wear a conventional black tuxedo.
·
At home for
entertaining guests when you want to wear something which is just the right
blend of a suit and tuxedo.
If
you are more of a modern gentleman then you can wear them in the following
scenarios as well.
·
To
formal events like Masonic lodge, country club dinners or celebrations like retirement
parties, anniversaries, weddings and birthdays.
·
Out
on the town to the ballet, opera or theater
·
To
traditional event or dinner parties that is not traditional white or black tie
·
While
celebrating and enjoying with friends at a restaurant, lounge or might club
·
On
a date instead of a sports jacket, suit or blazer
Having
a dinner jacket is a staple. It not only differentiates from the crowd but also
works perfectly in different scenarios. It is one of those jackets that can be
worn instead of a blazer, a tuxedo, a business suit or a simple sweater. You
can choose from different colors and make a style statement.
