Sexton Dinner Suit
Description
"The" Sexton dinner suit. Cut in a sharp 10oz wool, this jacket features our iconic grosgrain edge tape on the lapels and pockets. Featuring the classic Sexton peak lapel and a narrowed waist, to induce a striking silhouette.
To match the rock and roll silhouette, we have paired this jacket with our slightly flared parallel trousers.
For those requiring an extra level of formality, our matching black Sexton waistcoat is available here.

Jacket Block
Our Heritage Jacket is the epitome of the Sexton look, cut with confident peak lapels, a straight shoulder line and one button to fasten. Single-breasted one-button jackets like this contribute to a lean, athletic look. The single button focuses the eye on the wearer’s natural waistline, while a broad lapel draws the eye towards the shoulders, which contrasts with the jacket’s slim waist. The overall impression is supremely elegant, and true to our art deco reference points.

Trouser Block
Most of our trousers are cut with timeless, gently tapered legs, but we also recently reintroduced Parallel Trousers, which taper through the thigh and then fall straight from the knee, giving the impression of a subtle flare. These come with no small amount of sex appeal, and are the style of trouser that Edward introduced at Nutter’s of Savile Row, as worn by the rock aristocracy of the 1970s – Mick Jagger in particular. Turn-ups add a touch of panache, and help wider leg trousers to drape and fall correctly – and so are always to be encouraged. We like healthy two-inch turn-ups on all of our trousers.
