Some more vintage images we saw and fell in love with! 

The double-breasted black or midnight-blue jackets were the norm for warm-weather black tie by the mid 1930s.

Color exploded into warm-weather formal wear around 1933 mirroring a consecutive trend in summer attire in general.  Said Apparel Arts in the summer of that year:  

Blue was the second most popular color of the period, appearing in the same accessories including cornflower boutonnieres.  Dark green was a distant third.   

In 1935 summer evening color cautiously graduated from the dinner jacket’s accessories to the jacket itself in a tan hue called “Burma”.  Along with occasional appearances of an equally understated grey tone or off-white silks, this remained the primarily alternative to white throughout the 1930s and ‘40s.
