Your tuxedo made to measure.
For your big evening.
A tuxedo says something about you and the occasion. We make yours to measure in the finest fabrics, with silk satin lapels and a perfect silhouette.
Make an elegant entrance.
Second only to the tailcoat in formality, a tuxedo brings confidence to galas, opera evenings, weddings and other formal occasions.
Every tuxedo from our Düsseldorf atelier is made to your measurements. A classic black tuxedo with peak lapels, an elegant navy shawl-collar tuxedo or a white dinner jacket for summer in the south: you choose the fabric, lapels, fit and details.
We guide you through each stage: consultation, precise measurements using fitting garments, production and fitting. The result is a tuxedo that fits comfortably as you move through the evening.
Which tuxedo is right for you?
From classic black tie to a white dinner jacket, we make the tuxedo to suit your occasion and your style.
Navy with peak lapels
A modern classic: deep navy with sharply defined peak lapels in silk satin. Contemporary, elegant and distinctive.
Black with peak lapels
The timeless black tuxedo is the most formal evening wear. For galas, opera, state receptions and formal weddings.
White dinner jacket
A white dinner jacket with a shawl collar, inspired by Italian summers. For Riviera galas, elegant weddings and special summer evenings.
Silk satin. Fine craftsmanship. Finished to perfection.
Details define a tuxedo. Every one from our atelier has the authentic features that set it apart from a conventional suit.
- Pure silk satin lapels, with a shawl collar or peak lapels
- Silk-covered buttons, color-matched to the lapels
- Silk trim along the sides of the tuxedo trousers (galon stripe)
- Jetted pockets without visible flaps
- Made entirely to your measurements for a personal fit
- Traditional full canvas construction and handcraftsmanship for a lasting silhouette
Shawl collar or Peak Lapel?
The lapels set the character of your tuxedo. Both styles are classically correct. The choice is yours and reflects your personal style.
Shawl collar
A soft, curved lapel line with no visible seam. Particularly elegant, with a gently romantic, classic feel. Historically the original dinner jacket style, it is ideal for private galas, stylish weddings and smaller evening gatherings.
Peak lapels
A sharply defined lapel that points upward. More formal and structured, with a distinctive outline. The classic choice for official occasions, opera, state receptions and formal black tie evenings.
Made-to-measure tuxedo shirts.
A tuxedo needs the right shirt. We make yours to measure in Egyptian cotton or the finest poplin, with the classic details of evening wear.
- Classic tailcoat shirt. A plain front with concealed buttons or buttonholes for shirt studs, for a restrained, elegant look.
- Pleated tuxedo shirt. The distinctive pleated front is an instantly recognizable classic for formal black tie occasions.
- Double cuffs. Fold-back cuffs for cufflinks in precious metals and fine gemstones.
- Classic collar styles. A point collar or wing collar to complement your bow tie.
Accessories with character.
Your bow tie, pocket square and shoes complete the tuxedo. We can also make these individually to order.
Monogrammed bow tie
A self-tie bow tie in black silk, with your monogram on the reverse if you wish. A discreet detail that makes it yours.
Shoes for your tuxedo
Patent leather Oxfords are the classic choice, with black velvet slippers an alternative for private occasions. Both complete your black tie look and are available from us, individually made to order.
