Cream suit for the Debs

abetarrush

K, i need some advice

Almost everyone Ive heard from is gettin a black/navy suit for the debs, but I want to get a cream/gold one from Blacktie

Just wonderin, if the suit suits me [:P] and I show up at the debs, and literally everyone else is wearin a dark suit, will I look like a twat????

imo yes, unless you get a purple pimp suit with matching hat and feather and pimp cane.

tbh cream suits scream tackyness.

a white/cream suit is so 80s music video

the only place you could wear it today is [name of some very hot country]

Only on the very hottest day in the nicest hotel in Ireland. Don't do it. You will look like a complete twat. Take my word for it

Cream suits were fine on Miami Vice or the 80's but go with whatever you feel comfortable in.

I think you'd look like an idiot.... but who knows you might pull it off. Ask your date what she thinks!

I'd hazard a guess that you would. Cream/Gold suits fine in the days of Wham/Miami Vice but not now methinks

Do not get a cream suit..they are terrible!!!
If I saw some guy in one i'd say he was a knacker!

Go Black..way classier!

how does it make a difference whether it's hot or not (weather wise)??

Yes.

You're probably thinking Humphrey Bogart in "Casablanca" but I'm thinking Tom Hanks in "Big".

you might look like a twat and even may lok like a knacker, then again you might pull it off. But I would say you almost definiitely won't be the only one wearing one. And anyway most of the night will be too filled with drinkin and "jaysus I haven't seen you since before the leaving! what are you up to now?" for anyone to really care.

fvckit, cost too much, so jus got an uber-swanky black tux

Great to hear OP!
Atleast you wont see the stains/minding it as much aswell.
Have a good night:)

It's because light coloured suits, usually made of silk or linen, were the preserve of the "colonies" and hotter climes They reflect the heat better and are usually made of a lighter material. It's just the traditional approach, and proper sartorial protocall. That's why you very rarely see them in Ireland. Therefore, you stick out like a sore thumb with one.

Dunno about yous, but at my debs the 2 or 3 lads who went for somethin different e.g. the pimp suit, the white suit etc got respect for standin out so fcuk it go for it i say.

Me, I personally loved my John Gotti Goodfellas type look, thats why i took off the dickie at the first opportunity.

i'd say go for it, everyone looking the same is sooooo boring...

I'd say NNNNNOOOOOOO!!!

At my debs one fella wore a cream suit and he stood out alright but NOT in a good way trust me!

Have a black suit with gold waistcoat ect. cuz your going to take the jacket off anyway so it will be seen

Black suit with a gold waistcoat? That's worse than a cream suit. :eek:
