Henry Poole, credited with creating the dinner jacket, or tuxedo, has held a British royal warrant since the 1860s when it supplied Queen Victoria.

In a small room inside an anonymous industrial block, an old man with a bushy white beard is being fitted with a dinner jacket, ready for the red carpet at the Bafta Awards.

I found him one evening in the virtual club’s dingy bathroom chatting with a giant fox, a couple of skater girls and a guy in a dinner jacket smoking a cigarette.

White dinner jackets are acceptable in the summer or warm climates.

This may mean gowns with funky patterns, art-printed dinner jackets and eye-catching accessories like velvet purses or patterned pocket squares.
