White tie is the most formal dress code you can wear in the western hemisphere and unfortunately, most men get it wrong.
DON'Ts:
1. Don't wear slippers. Now, they may look very similar to opera pumps also known as court shoes and they have this bow, they're made out of a patent leather.
2. Do not wear an obviously fake boutonniere. A boutonniere is a lapel flower and it's almost obligatory for a white tie ensemble. You can get away without it but since it's a celebratory event, it really looks much better.
3. Do not wear a necktie. A necktie is only appropriate for a business suit but never for either black tie or white tie ensembles.
4. Don't wear a regular suit. If the invitation states full fig, white tie, or formal attire, and white tie is required, you need a tailcoat.
5. Do not wear a white or off white dinner jacket.
6. Do not wear a regular tuxedo if the invitation states white tie. Simply either invest in a full ensemble which can be difficult may be even rent it.
7. Do not wear spats with evening wear.
8. Do not wear black shirts. The only acceptable shirt for a white tie ensemble is either a Marcella pique front that is stiff or a boil front that is likewise stiff.
9. Do not wear a designer's name or label visibly on your clothing.
10. Do not wear wrist watches with white tie. Back in the day, it was impolite to look at your watch when in company because it would imply you have better things to do.
11. Do not wear a stud-less shirt and don't skip the bow tie.
12. Do not wear a morning coat.
13. Do not wear a cummerbund with a white tie ensemble. Cummerbunds are not appropriate with white tie.
14. Do not wear notched lapels on your evening tailcoat.
15. Make sure your shirt does not come untucked with your white tie ensemble.
16. Do not wear waistcoats that are too long. Generally, it's a hallmark of someone who doesn't wear black tie very often to have a waistcoat that peaks out underneath the front of the evening tailcoat.
DO's:
1. Do wear a pocket watch.
2. Do show some shirt cuff.
3. Wear boutonniere and a top hat.
4. Wear your white tie ensemble with confidence.
5. Wear an evening overcoat and pair it with gloves and a nice silk scarf in the winter.
6. Wear an evening waistcoat.
7. Wear patent leather evening shoes.
