Whether you're a Hollywood heartthrob or French auteur filmmaker, this tuxedo would surely be all the rage on the carpet of the Cannes Film Festival, which had its debut the same year & month this tux was tailored! Both pieces of this suit are made from a medium weight black wool. The jacket is double breasted with a 1x4 button closure, has silk faille peak lapels, jetted chest pocket, two welted hip pockets, interior pockets on each side, and two buttons on each cuff. Has a skeleton lining, shoulder pads, and unvented back. The trousers have a black silk ribbon side stripe, two hip pockets, coin pocket, two buttoning back pockets, belt loops, six-button fly, and full set of suspender buttons. Tag inside jacket is from Hamilton Cincinnati, and tailor's tag is dated 1946! This suit is in great vintage condition, with no holes, stains, odors to note. 

Please Note: We list the Suit Size in the Title. A "Suit Size" is taken from your actual chest measurement. While we'd like a well-fitted suit, we don't want a skin-tight suit, so the actual jacket chest measurement is generally a few inches larger.
