I have wondered about that for a long time. He can get 1) any tailor, and 2) any hair stylist

Not only does he look miserable, he makes all those around him look miserable also.

he is mistaken. That is why he looks so miserable...he got a view of himself in a mirror.

the edges of his ill fitting jacket over that ridiculously bloated gut. He knows he looks grossly out of place, like the chef's trailer trash brother in law filling in for the maître d? of a cheap Italian restaurant.

Staph
(6,245 posts)6. According to Wikipedia's entry on White Tie:
According to the British etiquette guide Debrett's, the central components of full evening dress for men are a white marcella shirt with a detachable wing collar and single cuffs, fastened with studs and cufflinks; the eponymous white marcella bow tie is worn around the collar, while a low-cut marcella waistcoat is worn over the shirt. Over this is worn a black single-breasted barathea wool or ultrafine herringbone tailcoat with silk peak lapels. The trousers have double-braiding down the outside of both legs, while the correct shoes are patent leather or highly polished black dress shoes. Although a white scarf remains popular in winter, the traditional white gloves, top hats, canes and cloaks are now rare. Women wear a full-length evening dress, with the option of jewellery, a tiara, a pashmina, coat or wrap. Long gloves are not compulsory.
The waistcoat should not be visible below the front of the tailcoat, which necessitates a high waistline and (often) braces for the trousers. As one style writer for GQ magazine summarizes "The simple rule of thumb is that you should only ever see black and white not black, white and black again".

Look at those trousers. Does he even have a tailor? He looks like he's wearing the bottom half of a zoot suit.

in the WORLD. Or, perhaps he does and thinks if you put makeup on a zit no one will notice.

I've certainly seen the Queen and the Pope looking happier than in these photos!
