Tuxedos

The tuxedo is what this house does best, and what sells most in the boutique. A satin-lapel jacket, two trousers to go with it — the cigarette cut close to the leg, the flare opening over the shoe — and the tops that go underneath.

It is evening dress that does not look like evening dress. The jacket goes back on over jeans the next day, the cigarette trouser goes to the office. Few occasion wardrobes have that second life.

Top and bottom are chosen separately, each in its own size. Sleeves and hem are altered in the boutique in Lyon.
