Traditionally this should be worn in tropical areas with black dress trousers, white dress shirt and black bow tie.
It is now accepted practice to wear this outfit when cruising or at a summer dance. The outfit is always worn with a dress shirt but a wide choice of colour is permissible for cummerbund, bow tie and handkerchief.

Black Tie
 
Worn when invitation states “Black Tie” - receptions and balls, formal evening functions and cruises.
 
This consists of a single-breasted or double-breasted jacket with satin faced lapels and trousers with a satin stripe down the outside leg seam. The traditional shirt is white, plain collared with a pleated or Marcella front, but nowadays the more modern wing collared shirt with pleated front is preferred by many men.
There is a wide range of patterns and colours in bow ties, handkerchiefs, waistcoats and cummerbunds; one or other of the last two items may be worn with the single-breasted jacket, but never waistcoat and cummerbund together.
