Virgil No. 3 Shawl Collar Tuxedo in Black Wool with Silk Grosgrain Trim
DESCRIPTION
This tuxedo is the black-tie and shawl-collared version of our classic Virgil suit in a refined wool plainweave from England with silk grosgrain trim.
The No. 3 make has full canvas construction — the sine qua non of tailoring — with a special, structured 3-layer canvas that'll mold and meld to your body over time.
While the jacket lacks the 3-roll-2 front and notched lapels of our other Virgil jackets, it has the same classically American-by-way-of-Italy spirit with a natural shoulder, a shorter body, and no front darts.
Think old-school 'sack suit,' but sexier. (Or in this case, 'sack tux'?) The trousers are cut in our original plain-front shape to complement the jacket, with side-adjuster tabs at the waist and a grosgrain stripe down the sides.
We think it's the kind of tux you'll get excited about wearing… and a real upgrade from the ghosts of rentals past.
Just like all of our tailored clothing, it's designed to take you to black-tie events in Mississippi, Manhattan, and Milan (and beyond) without looking or feeling out of place.
