Shirt – White with stiff wing collar. The stiff or semi-stiff front and cuffs are made of a hand pleated laid on fabric or marcella pique. Traditionally the front of the shirt is closed with two or three dress studs in black or gold, or alternatively the shirt should be styled with a pleated fly front. The cuff is closed with links..
Tie – Made from a marcella pique either ready tied or to-tie. No buckles, clips or elastic should show. Ideally the span of the bow tie should equal the span of the wing collar and the depth of the bow tie should be approximate to the depth of the collar.
Waistcoat – Should be made from white marcella pique, single breasted with lapes and three or four-button front. Your waistcoat should appear slightly above your cut away jacket. Waistcoats are normally backless but garments with full backa are not unusual.
Socks – Black silk or fine cotton are recommended.
Shoes – Black patented leather lace-up or slip-on.
Handkerchief – Black or white silk to be worn in the breast pocket.
