PC jacket colors?

[Jock Scot]

Whilst there are colours, other than black, that can and do work very well with the PC, I think real care and thought should be put into the basic colour but also the assorted shades of ones colour choice to avoid the circus ringmaster look, or worse still, the look of one of his staff, the clown.

Wise words as always Mr Scot. In reference to my admiration for the Orange jacket, I should have inserted the word "probably" when describing how I'd snap it up. Barnham and Bailey had crossed the deep recesses of my thought process, but I'd done my level best to repress it. As I am often want to do.

Arguably the perfect matching footwear??...

I have a black PC and a nice green one, but my favourite is my navy blue. I have always fancied a white PC, but we just don't get the summers to warrant that.

I'm with you there Chas, I think white would be ever so dapper. Be a bit of an anti climax if a waitress up-ended your soup though. And if that orange PC on ebay recently had have been a 46", I'd have had that snapped up as well.

Whenever I think of white evening wear, I can't help but laugh and think of Jeeves.

Excellent reference material, Scott.

There's a picture of a white one here:

IMHO, the jabot with a pc is a mistake. But to be fair, it did look
rather better in person than the picture shows.

Some good pictures there, John. Interesting variations on a theme.

After all, you wouldn't expect someone to appear at a black tie event wearing a red tuxedo.

There was a time when sky blue or pink, with ruffles were seen to be somewhat formal. I would never be caught in that, but I am just saying it has been known to happen...lol

I think that footwear was fashioned after a pair of Sergeant Major's boots ( which would have been black in color ) .... extremely wide at the toe to facilitate a lot of butt kicking !

I was never keen on the idea of the gentlemen looking like a flock of penguins, while the ladies appear as lovely flowers. I think it's time to re-vamp our ideas of what constitutes men's formal attire.
