Curator's Description
Curator's DescriptionDiscover the Corneliani Black Classic Super 150’s Wool Tuxedo, a timeless evening piece defined by clarity of line and disciplined restraint. Cut from Super 150’s wool with a smooth, refined surface, it offers a polished appearance suited to the most formal occasions. The jacket is tailored with broad silk peak lapels, a single button closure and silk covered buttons, while jetted pockets finished in silk maintain an uninterrupted silhouette. Designed without vents for a cleaner back profile and shaped with subtly padded shoulders, it carries a composed, classic presence. Fully lined for structure and comfort, it reflects the enduring codes of black tie dressing.
Part of Corneliani’s Ceremonia line, the house’s dedicated formalwear collection, this tuxedo is constructed with careful attention to proportion and finish. The Super 150’s wool lends fluidity and a gentle lustre, enhancing the depth of black under evening light. The trousers are equipped with internal buttons for traditional suspenders, reinforcing the formal integrity of the ensemble and ensuring a clean waistband without reliance on a belt. It is a piece that honours sartorial tradition while delivering the quiet confidence expected of modern formal tailoring. Discover the elaborated sartorial details below.

Sartorial Details
Full Canvas Construction
A sartorial jacket - or coat - needs an interlining that will help give it shape and mold it. Canvas gives the item a tailored and crafted look. In short, it breathes life into it. Purely technical, canvas is made from either horsehair, wool, mohair or camel hair. It could also be a mix of them all, with varying thickness and weight. The canvas is stitched to the jacket, often by hand, thus making the canvas pieces 'floating' in the middle of the inner and outer cloth. This gives the jacket added flexibility. The canvas runs from the upper parts, all the way down to the end of the jacket. After you wear your canvassed suit for a while, it will begin to take your shape and look incredibly natural.
Soft Shoulders
Soft Shoulders, or lightly padded shoulder construction, gives a softer, more casual silhouette to a tailored jacket. Soft shoulders have little padding and follow the contour of the individual’s shoulder to accentuate the wearer’s natural features.
Buttonhole
The buttonhole on the lapel of a jacket, traditionally found on the left side, is a classic feature rooted in both functionality and decoration. Historically, it served a practical purpose, allowing gentlemen to fasten the lapel to the opposite side for extra protection against cold weather or to secure a boutonnière, a decorative flower. While its functional use has largely diminished in modern times, the lapel buttonhole remains a staple of formal and semi-formal menswear, often used to add a touch of elegance with the addition of a boutonnière for special occasions.
Single Button Closure
Due to their roots in traditional eveningwear styles, one-button suit jackets are frequently tailored with a longer cut compared to other suit variations. By keeping the button fastened, a well-proportioned appearance is maintained. It is crucial to always button these jackets when standing.
Chest Pocket
The barchetta pocket is often thought to be a tailoring detail exclusively from Italy. The word “barchetta” is Italian for “little boat.” It describes how the pocket floats on the chest, gently angled upwards, like the bow of a sailboat.
Darts
The tailors adds two darts - think of them as pinched seams - to ensure the jacket’s body achieves a slim silhouette. The process, called mezzo punto riprese, is done entirely by hand.
Silk Buttons

Jetted Pockets
The first jacket pockets were sewn inside the lining or seams of garments, and are called “jetted” pockets. In their simplest form, they consist of little more than a slit. Suits that are the most formal, especially tuxedos, have no flap pockets altogether to give the piece a more streamlined look.
