Men's Formal Wear
Tuxedos, Perfected

A notch lapel has a simple, angled notch where the collar meets the lapel — versatile and common on everyday formal suits. A peak lapel points upward toward the shoulder, giving a bolder, more traditional black-tie silhouette. A shawl lapel is curved with no notch at all, rolling smoothly from the collar — the classic choice for a tuxedo. All three are available across our formal wear range.

Our tuxedos are crafted from luxurious wool, sparkling lurex, opulent jacquards, printed velvets and peony silk — with lapels finished in grosgrain or silk satin for the classic contrast every black-tie garment needs.

Sartoria Black Label made-to-measure offers premium Italian tailoring with fast turnaround, ideal for most black-tie occasions. Sartoria Platinum Label bespoke is fully hand-constructed from a pattern cut exclusively for you — the choice for those who want complete control of every detail.

Absolutely. From lapel style and fabric to lining, buttons and monogramming, every detail is yours to choose. Every detail identifies your personal style — nothing about a Germaine Joseph formal garment is off-the-rack.

Black-tie weddings, galas, awards nights, opera and theatre openings, corporate formal events, and any occasion where classic black-tie attire is the expectation — we craft the tuxedo to genuinely suit the occasion.

Standard production for Sartoria Black Label is approximately 3 weeks from consultation to delivery. Rush options of 7 or 8 days are available via express courier. Bespoke Platinum Label garments take longer — typically 6–10 weeks given the fully hand-constructed process.

Sartoria Black Label formal suits and tuxedos start from $1,699. Sartoria Platinum Label bespoke starts from $2,200. Pricing varies based on fabric selection and custom detailing.

Yes. A three-piece formal suit with a matching waistcoat adds a genuine sense of formality and polish — a popular choice for black-tie weddings and formal galas.
