Evening Edit

An evening edit for men built on tuxedo jackets, dinner jackets, tuxedo shirts and dark tailored trousers. For the formal invite and the dressier dinner.

When an invite says black tie, I want the man in my life to look sharp without looking like he rented it. Start with a real tuxedo jacket and let the details do the work: J.Crew's Ludlow shawl collar in black wool is the classic, and the cream dinner jacket from the same line is what I would wear to a summer wedding.

If you want something with more texture, the velvet tuxedo jacket from Reiss is great for a winter dinner, and BOSS makes a slim shawl collar that sits cleanly with a bow tie. Pair either with J.Crew's Crosby tuxedo pant and a crisp white shirt, like the Bonobos tuxedo shirt or the BOSS easy iron dress shirt. For a softer take, a navy jacket from Officine Generale with Theory's Mayer trousers works for dinners that say cocktail attire.

Pink and Chocolate Brown Outfits to Try This Fall

Pink and chocolate brown is the softest way to wear pink in fall. These four outfits put pale pink knits, a silk skirt, a mini dress and a shirt with brown corduroy, cashmere, shearling and suede. The brown keeps the pink grown up.

Gray and Chocolate Brown Outfits to Try This Fall

A gray and chocolate brown outfit puts gray cashmere, wool or organza with brown suede or leather, a grown-up way to skip black this fall. I built five looks, from a herringbone scarf with brown suede to a gray wool dress under brown leather.

Burgundy and Chocolate Brown Outfits to Try This Fall

Burgundy and chocolate brown is the richest-looking pairing of fall, two dark colors from the same warm family. These five outfits put burgundy leather, knits, jersey and ruffles with brown denim, cashmere, alpaca and suede. Keep chocolate brown and burgundy both dark, and mix the textures.

Olive Green and Black Outfits to Try This Fall

Olive green and black is the low-effort pairing of the season, military without looking like a costume. These five outfits put army green satin, cashmere, twill and corduroy with black leather, crepe and suede. Wear olive like a neutral and black will do the rest.

What to Wear to a Fall Rehearsal Dinner

What to wear to a fall rehearsal dinner: a satin or velvet midi or maxi dress with a sharp jacket or sculptural bag. I pick dresses with evening texture, outer layers that count as part of the outfit, and polished shoes.

Holiday Party Outfits: Gowns, Velvet and Sequins for Every Invitation

Festive dressing is back in full force, with gowns, velvet, lace and sequins filling party calendars from December to New Year's Eve. The mood is joyful and a little theatrical, a reaction to years of quiet minimalism. This edit gathers everything needed to dress for every party on the list.
