Chaqueta de terciopelo a medida CLIFTON Tait

The Tait Custom Velvet Blazer is made for the moments when ordinary tailoring would feel far too polite. Cut from supersoft velvet with a rich pile and subtle sheen, it brings depth, texture, and unmistakable presence to black-tie events, weddings, hospitality, stagewear, performances, and formal occasions. Every Tait is tailored from scratch around your fit, lapels, lining, buttons, embroidery, trims, and individual sleeve and back lengths.

Why Choose the Tait?

• Velvet with real depth: The soft pile catches the light differently as you move, giving the blazer a richer and more dimensional finish than flat woven fabrics.
• Built for eveningwear: The Tait feels naturally at home at galas, weddings, dinners, performances, and occasions where the jacket should carry some drama.
• Made from scratch: Every blazer is individually cut and tailored rather than adapted from stock formalwear.
• Satin or velvet detailing: Choose matching or contrast lapels, pocket welts, collars, and trims to sharpen or soften the final look.
• Tailored for your group: Mix Slim, Classic, and Mighty fits, with individual sleeve and back lengths included across the order.
• Free design support: Start with a dress code, wedding palette, stage concept, reference image, sketch, or simply a color direction.

Fabric and Feel

The Tait is made from Supersoft Velvet, a fabric with a short, smooth pile and an elegant sheen that changes subtly under different light.

It feels soft to the touch, visually rich, and more substantial than a standard cotton or twill blazer. The fabric has natural depth and movement, so darker shades can appear almost liquid under evening lighting, while jewel tones become especially vivid.

Velvet is best chosen for texture, atmosphere, and formal impact rather than for hot-weather breathability or hard-wearing everyday use.

Color and Satin Options

The Tait can be kept restrained in black, navy, or deep charcoal, or pushed into richer shades such as burgundy, bottle green, royal blue, plum, or other jewel tones.

Satin details can be used to:

• Match the velvet for a seamless eveningwear finish
• Create contrast at the lapels or collar
• Define pocket welts and trims
• Add structure around the front edge
• Introduce a second color without overwhelming the jacket

For the cleanest black-tie look, choose matching or tonal satin. For weddings, stagewear, or statement events, contrast satin can give the blazer a stronger visual edge.

Fit and Tailoring Options

The Tait is available in Slim, Classic, and Mighty fits, with men’s and women’s sizing options that can be mixed within the same group order.

• Slim fit: closer through the chest and waist for a sharper eveningwear silhouette.
• Classic fit: more room through the body for a traditional tailored shape.
• Mighty fit: designed with additional room through the chest, waist, shoulders, and upper arms.

Individual sleeve and back lengths are included, helping each blazer sit more accurately than a standard ready-to-wear jacket. Full bespoke tailoring is also available where required.

Available tailoring options include:

• Single- or double-breasted styling
• Peak, shawl, or notch lapels
• Velvet or satin lapel finishes
• Patch, flap, jetted, or welt pockets
• Custom vents and button arrangements
• Solid, contrast, or printed linings
• Embroidered names, initials, monograms, and insignia
• Custom buttons, labels, trims, and finishing details
• Mixed fits and sizes within the same order

Make the Eveningwear Your Own

The Tait can be quietly elegant, stage-ready, wedding-specific, or deliberately flamboyant.

You can customize:

• Velvet colors and Pantone-inspired shades
• Lapel shape, width, and fabric
• Satin accents and contrast details
• Pocket style and placement
• Embroidered initials, names, logos, crests, and monograms
• Solid or custom-printed linings
• Button styles and finishes
• Contrast stitching and internal trims
• Personalized labels and internal branding
• Individual details across blazers within the same order

Because every Tait is tailored from scratch, the finished blazer is not limited to the usual black velvet dinner jacket formula.

Best Suited To

The Tait is particularly well suited to black-tie events, weddings, galas, hospitality teams, stage productions, performers, bands, choirs, formal dinners, awards evenings, and anyone who wants eveningwear with more texture and personality than standard suiting.
