Carla & Raja's Wedding, Guillaume Brahimi's, Sydney Opera House, Sydney Australia

It was the first chance for me to wear the LNP White Dinner Jacket designed in collaboration with Carl Sciarra (http://www.sciarra.com.au/). It was the first wedding of the summer for me and it turned out to be an amazing event. I am sporting an LNP Black Satin with white piping in batwing shape, pictured here with cook book writer and blogger Stephanie Conley of 'The Hostess' http://www.thehostess.com.au/

Churchill

Churchill tied his own bows. His most pictured bow was the black with white polka dot. What's fantastic is his casual tying of the bow and ultimately the ecentricity it gives as the bow takes on a different shape in nearly every photograph one can find of Winston Churchill.

Coming To America - The Bow Ties In The Movie

I was watching the now legendary film 'Coming To America' today and was astonished to see how many bows are featured in this film. White bows at the Prince Hakeem's formal function for the introduction to his bride, bows in the barbers shop, bows in McDowell's in Queens, bows when the boys work at the McDowells engagement party.

Michael Dascarolis wears LNP Velvet Bow with LNP smoking jacket

This ensemble of jacket and trousers was designed by myself and made by Matthew Lawrence Bespoke in Paddington, Sydney. It was fashioned off another hybrid 'Smoking/Dinner' jacket which I had designed in January 2009 using Rochefort in the St James Trust building. Unfortunately, Rochefort were very unreliable, though the jacket was made very well by their 'old Italians' (who really are not that old I found out).

The jacket uses Holland and Sherry black velvet from their Black Tie bunch. We used a black satin duchess silk for the lapel which is a medium width shawl. The wool for the pants is Holland and Sherry worsted 110 wool if my memory serves me correctly. In my humble opinion, the black Holland and Sherry velvet, which I use for my bow ties www.lenoeudpapillon.com,  is the best velvet I have been able to find in my travels.
