Tailcoats and Trousers

Four-Little-Monkeys, 26 April, 2010 at 17:43 Posted on Planning 0 9

Does anyone know where I can get a Black Tailcoat and Grey Pinstrip Trousers for my nephew who will be 5mths old at time of wedding? I might also need one for H2Bs nephew too who will be 8mths.

    I think they'll be fine in a shirt and waist coat if you can find on with some trousers. I know monsoon and next do them.

    Not sure about tailcoat, but H&M were doing tuxedos and similar outfits for babies this Christmas, so it might be worth checking there.

    I'm sorry but that is just wrong.... babies are babies... ... why spend a fortune on something they are going to crap or puke over? dress them in something smart/cute for a baby..

    Thanks for all you replies.

    I have now found a website which do tailcoats for babies from newborn.

    Having 4 young children myself I dont see anything wrong in a 5mth old wearing a tailcoat and neither does my brother or SIL2B (his parents) infact they think it is rather cute that he will be seen as part of the bridal party (being dress the same as the other pageboys etc) rather than just another guest at a wedding or another baby. I have however said if they feel he is too hot they can remove it at any time, before, during or after the ceremony.

    Its my money and if I had a problem spending x amount on a suit which he was going to crap or puke over (as you put it) I would not have posted asking if anyone knew where I could buy one.

    He may just be a baby to some people (which is fine) but he is my nephew and an imporant person in my life and is a member of my wedding party regardless of his age, therefore after talking it through with my brother and sil2b we have decided that he should be dresses the same as other members of the wedding party.

    I am not posting this to cause an argument so please do not this that. I am simply just stating the facts as they are. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    Hi

    This is a link to the website.

    http://www.childrensspecialoccasionwear.co.uk/baby-boys-ivory--black-5-piece-tail-suit-wedding-pageboy-christening-1260-p.asp

    The link will take you to the Black Tailcoat and Trousers Suit. I cant find pinstripe trousers at the moment.

    Hope it helps.

    Thanks

    I think it's a lovely idea - OH's main stipulation on his suit was that his nephew (who's 12 but still in boy's rather than men's sizes) should be able to match.

    I found this site which seems to have pinstripe suits in - maybe they'd be able to sort you out with just trousers if you contacted them?

    Good luck.
