The first one is the most unholy alliance of clothing I have ever seen!

the first look is simply terrible, who the hell wears a tux with a track pant? that's just messed-up.

i dare someone to attend a formal function with sweatpants and not get thrown the fuck out

As much as I love Mr.Porter and what they do, track pants are for the gym or track, not to be worn with a dinner jacket. Maybe it's just me being a tailor by trade, but tradition is tradition for a reason, you can be creative with a tuxedo without ruining the whole thing with track pants.

a tuxedo with track pants ? -__-

This is the fashion equivalent of vegan bacon. Find another calling mate. Fashion is not for you.

Why in the world are you using pre-tied bow ties?

I think we all can agree the 1st look was complete whack. The rest of the looks were much better.

If a person is a 'reluctant tuxedo wearer' he should just not wear one, not try and jazz it up wearing it with fucking sweat pants. Number 2 is merely a black jacket with jeans for god's sake! Number 4 is just a black suit. This 'stylist' is a joker. A dinner suit doesn't need to be 'updated', there's a reason it is considered a classic.

#1... business on the top, saggy diaper pants on bottom... pretty much would have to be a model to pull that off without looking like a joke. The rest are great.

#1 is a joke, isn´t it?

The fuck were they smoking on #1. I guess it's practical if you have inflamed nuts.

please fire this stylist. i mean, the first look is disgraceful

OK, here's what this video should've looked like (in my opinion anyway) 1) ultimate black tie-1 button, barathea peak lapel tuxedo with 3 button u shape evening waistcoat. Marcella turndown collar shirt with onyx studs. Patent leather Oxfords, white linen pocket square 2) Simple elegance - 1 button shawl lapel tuxedo with grosgrain lapel, bow tie and cummerbund. Simple evening shirt with covered button placket 3) vintage style-same barathea tuxedo as look 1, but accessorised with starched bib front and detachable wing collar. V shape backless evening waistcoat in black barathea or white marcella. Opera pumps and white boutounniere. 4) velvet heaven - dark navy /midnight blue velvet shawl lapel smoking jacket with grosgrain lapel and accompanying bow tie. Black wool and mohair evening trouser. Same marcella shirt as look 1.Navy monogrammed velvet evening slippers. White linen pocket square. Oh, and a black velvet evening waistcoat. 5) summer elegance-ivory peak lapel tuxedo jacket with red boutounniere (a la seen connery in goldfinger) pleated front evening shirt with mother of pearl dress studs. Lightweight silk and mohair black evening trouser. Black silk cummerbund. Patent leather Oxfords. 6) White tie! Why not wear the classic in men's evening wear, with marcella waistcoat, white bow tie and bib front shirt with removable wing collar. White boutounniere, and opera pumps.

#1, 2 & 4 weren't even dinner jacket.

I forced myself to keep watching after outfit #1. I nearly cried when they pulled out the clip on bow tie.

#1 - The I failed in life look. #2 - The fashion less monotone with zero contrast look. #3 - The baggy trouser unstructured look. #4 - The 'I know nothing' look (necktie for black tie event and 2 button jacket, should only be one button you troglodytes)! #5 - The decent look (a bit unstructured at the shoulders). It's all in the accessories chaps, if you are fed up of that move to a velvet dinner jacket or smoking jacket. Not this hideous stuff.

That first look is horrendous

This stylist is the biggest troll evah. I love how normally he dresses on himself but he always makes the model look what I would call expensive ridiculous mess. LOL

If these 5 were at an event, #1 will be going home alone.

Rock but no rolls and mr midnight are my go to thanks to this video.

The first look with sweatpanta would work perfect with some semi ripped dark jeans

First look, 45 seconds in, pre tied bow tie, sweatpants and sneakers. Hysterical. You’ve played yourself

@thezombiespork. The classic dinner jacket look is a turned down collar, wing collars should only be worn at white tie events, so the material of the bow tie is not seen against the collar. All these 'takes' on a dinner jacket defeat the point of black tie convention. Black tie when worn correctly will make any gentleman look great. Black tie means black tie, which is a Peak or shawl lapel jacket single buttoned unless double breasted. Trousers should never have belt loops and the waist should be covered with a cummerbund or a scoop front Dinner Jacket waistcoat. Just remember fashion changes, proper style stays. A correctly fitting and styled Dinner jacket (or tuxedo for our friends over the pond) will only need to be replaced when it wears out. Oh, and as fir Italian's dressing better. The Dinner Jacket came from England.....

the first look is so worthless you can't wear that nowhere.

T_T ... tux with sweat pants...

If you freeze the video at 0:49 you can actually hear the model say........"W.......T........F"?

First costume made me switch this video off, sorry its just horrible

Why so many pre-tied bow ties? The last look is the best, third one would be nice too but the pants don't seem to go well with the jacket. Nice to see different perspectives though, even though I personally wouldn't wear any except the last.

Mr. Porter = Clip-on Bow ties Because less than 1 minute is to much to lose

had to thumbs down this video just for look 1... why in the world would anyone wear a tux with sneakers and sweatpants?

look #2 is really nice

Black tie is less about trying to stand out. the three main things are fit of your tux, how white is you shirt and finally your shoes

Sweats with a dinner jacket? Clip on bow tie? wtf is this shit?

the way you dress these people is legit funny

Loved the rock but no rolls :) Trying to pull it off at an event i have tomorrow

I really dig the all black one

Number 3 is pretty good, I really like it, a lot, and number 5... ooh, I LOVE that jacket...

I’d tap that Princely Style but the first one is A No No, dahhhling!! Mr. Midnight is definitely for funerals not parties.

All the looks are disastrous omg what have you done mr porter??

I like them all except the first one with the grey track suit pants but I guess that's what fashion is isn't it, you're own take on what you think looks good and expressing

Im a 20year old and i never get the weather to wear tux or the time to wear suits. i always go for the classic white tee and black jeans with moccasins or sometimes suede or just random trainers

After reading some of these comments, it's not wonder why Mr. Porter stopped doing these series. lol

The whole point of a tux is to not stand out and let the ladies shine.... simple elegant and not flashy.... that’s a good tux

The dinner jacket is such an elegant piece of attire. Its hard to visage it outside of its conventional usage. Saying that one birthday I wore my dinner jacket with a white collar bar shirt, black woven tie and khaki jeans paired with Clarks desert boots and it worked fairly well i thought.

Couldn't believe when I saw #1 ! Really ? The other looks were OK: liked #2 and #4. I'd prefer better fitting trousers for all the looks to show off the Dinner Jacket.

i hate the way a black jacket, black shirt and a black tie, it looks awful and doesn't give you a mysterious it looks stupid. Although too each his own i guess, its a good thing he used a different shade of shirt.

Look #1 totally puag

Wtf were they thinking with the sweatpants. :')

The trackpants are a bad idea, at all times. I liked the video for the sake of the other four looks.

Disappointing that they didn't demonstrate the classic dinner jacket look with a proper bow tie collar.

My vote goes to #5

The problem is always the trousers. It's not that they are wide; it's that they are too lose on the models and therefore ill-fitting. Mr May might want to consider going a full size down.

Make a Five Different Way to dress Denim(blue!) jacket!

I always thought that black suit was easy to pull off because its such a essentiel part of your wardrobe until i owned one. I have darker skin tone more yellow and navy blue looks way better on me than black.

ok DJ with sneakers and sweat pants is just wrong.

Trainers, joggies and a tuxedo? No thanks.... take me back to the 1920's.

Skimp the bow tie on look 1 and it would look "much" better. A blazer in a more casual fabric works as well.

This has to be a troll.

Who thought that first outfit was okay? Ick!!!

Navy velvet tuxxx 🖤 lovely looks, thank you for this video! (except the tracksuit pants one, that's a no from me)

noooooooo the pre-tied bow tie is a real obscenity

First look is like you found random clothes in the street

second look wasn't bad.... in fact it will be perfect for a date. But totally a 'no no' for a black - tie event

why not use a tuxedo slippers for the princely look since that is what it was meant for?

The track pants look absolutely ridiculous

It appears that the best silhouette of the bunch would go to Mr. midnight. I'd be a tad more enthusiastic about the princely style if that blazer was made of something other than velvet

Look #1: when both the top and the bottom begs the question, "why bother?"

Pre-tied bowties.. No thanks.

Rock, but no rolls is A+

The first look is called “the fucked up look” ! Do you understand?

in my country a lower-class suburban male dwellers wear somthing similar

John wick triple black is the best suit

This should be a TF video

#4 looks like his pissed him self and wearing borrowed trousers!!!!

Started watching, saw sweatpants and sneakers, stopped watching

With the amount of different and great clothing and brands available at Mr Porter that this guy has to work with, it's a damn shame he came up with only 1-2 decent looks...needs a lot of work and more thought.

what the hell has this stylist been smoking?

Pity you can't dislike a video multiple times

Only the 3rd and the 5th looked good. You wear a dinner jacket for a reason! Also, who thinks that black on black on black looks good on ANYBODY??

Tuxedo is a “dress down” dress up code. A chance for men to look elegant and not try to outdo each other and yet being gentlemanly to allow the ladies to stand out. The difference between these types of dress styles and the real black tie dress style is one style is akin to sporting a massive gold gaudy wrist watch with lots of finger rings, gold chains and bling, driving a gold plated Porsche or the other style is wearing an elegant unobtrusively expensive leather strapped wrist watch with just one small family ring or a simple wedding ring while driving an expensive stylish Bentley or BMW. Both may cost money, but which speaks of modesty, style snd class?

Is that first one some sort of out-of-season April Fool's joke

Что характерно, юноша ничего не смог надеть самостоятельно. Отсюда вывод: "стиль - это вымуштрованная нянька".

WDF! track pants? This guys a Muppet

to the first one... NO tuxedo w sweatpants and gym shoes?

How about swim short and a tie dye T-shirt with a Tux jacket? ... No? ... I am serious! ... See? ... I can be a stylist too ; )

Keep em coming Mr. porter! These are a good watch.

All the looks except the first one (no and no), and the pre-tied bow ties are not the most stylish way to do it.

Holy crap, don’t mess with the black tie dress code. If your going to wear it like that, don’t call it a dinner jacket.

Tux + Track pants for a dressed-down? More like a dressed-fail. We're not a bunch of Kanyes, eh Mr. Porter?

SKRALD!!!!!!!?!!!!

The track pant on the tux were horrific

Was that a pre-tied bow tie? noooooooooo. You lost all credibility. Also, sweatpants? come on.

None of these 5 is a complete evening outfit. Why ruining black tie with these fauxpass?

The only acceptable look was Mr midnight but even that...a lot of ppl would criticize an all black outfit

tux = bowties = fitting = classic = outstanding ≠ these looks

I never see big and tall guys in these style videos. Us athletes like to dress well too but everything is always catered to slim fit. I like trim fit...no nut huggers and tight shirts.

#4

Good video at last an informative video on KZfaq not the random rubbish churned up by the let's say less knowledgeable channels on KZfaq.

look 1 missed the mark. by a lot. that is what you wear while sitting around waiting so you don't wrinkle your pants.
