Title: Black tie event
Post by: Sippo on Monday, December 14, 2009, 11:55:03
Does this mean a tux, or do you think I'd get away with just a shirt and tie. Its only in a pub.

Fred, where did you get yours from for that De Vere ball. Sure it was tkmax or matalan?

Yes it does. That's a posh pub!

Somewhere like Asda used to do a 'cheap' one last year. Not looked this.

edit: Seems the days of their £35 tux are gone, looks about £50 now. You could just hire one I suppose but that is probably just as expensive.

Its only the Blundson Arms. Guess they're trying to keep the riff raff out.

Do you think I could get away with a morning suit? I really don't want to spend money for one night.

Just use a normal black suit then look to buy/hire a tux shirt. A dickie bow only costs a couple of quid

I went to a wedding that was black tie last week - It defo means tux! but surely liek someone said just adding a bow tie and shirt to a black suit would be fine?

Or try Matalan??

Kick like a mule - The bouncer.  The klaxons used to include a version of it in their set.
