Vintage 1960s Mens White Dinner Jacket Elegant Tailors Toronto Size 40 R

This is a very nice quality white dinner jacket made in summer weigh blended fabric.  The jacket is made with a shawl collar, slightly padded shoulders, single button closure, two button cuffs, flapped pocket at either side and a pocket at the left chest.  It was union made in Canada and hand fitted by a tailor.   

Label:  Hand Tailored by Elegant Tailors Gus Dimitriadis Toronto

Union label:  ACWA union label used between 1962 and 1976

Colour:  White.  Really a pure white, not cream white like many of these dinner jackets

Fabric:  There is no content label, however, this is a synthetic blended fabric, maybe a wool and rayon or cotton and rayon blend.  Lightweight, meant for summer use, has a very nice wrinkle free appearance.

Sizing: Size 40 regular is indicated on the label on the interior pocket - my husband, who is a size 42, tried it on and although he got in on, it was snug.  Please rely on the following measurements for fit (compare measurement with a similar jacket that you presently own or to your own body measurements, taking the cut of the garment into account):

Shoulders: 19” across from shoulder/sleeve seam to shoulder/sleeve seam

Sleeves: 25 1/2” from the shoulder/sleeve seam

Sleeve inseam: 16 3/4”

Chest:  46” around, taken under the arms

Waist:  42” around

Overall length:  30 1/2”, measured flat

Condition:  It is in very clean condition with no wear, tear, or soiling/staining - this jacket looks to have seen very little use and has been well cared for over the years. 

This is a sharp looking jacket - great for your next formal dinner!
