Morning coat or white tie?
The morning coat is traditionally considered the "daytime tailcoat."
Its characteristic silhouette makes it unmistakable: the jacket is cut shorter at the front and tapers off into a curved line at the back. The morning coat is worn for highly formal daytime occasions – from elegant weddings and royal events to the famous horse races at Ascot.
As day turns into evening, the dress code changes too: for particularly formal evening events, the tailcoat traditionally takes over from 6 p.m.
Move the slider and discover the difference: Cutaway by day. White Tie by night.

Royal Ascot – this is where MEN wear morning suits
Royal Ascot, the famous British horse race, has stood for style, class, and royal elegance since 1711. Year after year, style-conscious society gathers here – including celebrities, fashion icons, and members of the royal family. What makes it special: the event's strict dress code continues to inspire formal fashion to this day – and serves as an excellent template for your wedding suit. Your Royal Ascot look consists of: a classic morning coat, striped morning trousers, a grey waistcoat – optionally in a subtle color for an individual touch, a white shirt with a wing collar & a subtle cravat or a silver-grey tie. As a stylistic highlight, a grey top hat provides a royal finishing touch to your outfit. Black, polished leather shoes ensure the perfect conclusion to an elegant, flawless wedding look.
