If you are going for a traditional, throw-back era look, then our Ike Behar full Ivory tuxedo jacket called Harrison is just the tuxedo for you. This luxury and classic ivory colored, shawl lapel jacket is truly a timeless garment. When you see this elegant ivory trim fit jacket, you will love the details. From the self shawl lapel, center vent, one button front and double besom pockets.
Honestly, there isn’t a lot to say about this timeless tuxedo jacket. This tuxedo jacket style has been around for many decades and it has endured the test of time.
So let’s move into what else we would wear with this jacket.
How Would We Complete This Look?
Most of the our grooms wear this tuxedo jacket with the matching Ike Behar black tuxedo pants with quarter inch satin down the side of the pants. Ike also offers a skinny fit version of these comfortable tuxedo pants for the more fashion-forward groom or groomsman.
We can say that not too often do we see a groom who wears this completely ivory tuxedo jacket with ivory pants. Most choose the black tuxedo pants options. However, some can pull off the all ivory look.
About 4 years ago, a groom insisted on wearing all ivory: ivory tuxedo jacket, ivory pants and ivory shoes. We asked him if he was sure he wanted to wear all ivory. His answer was a resounding yes. We, to be blunt, were skeptical of this look. So when he came to try on the tuxedo with the ivory jacket, ivory pants, ivory bow tie, ivory shoes and a white microfiber shirt, we were pleasantly surprised how elegant the look was. Our groom looked quite amazing!
However, the real test was when he sent us photos after the wedding. He had beautiful photos in Atlantic City, NJ that he had sent us. The wedding photos of this groom in all ivory were spectacular. He changed our mind about encouraging grooms to consider wearing black pants all of the time when wearing the Ike Behar Harrison. He looked stunning, like a movie star! While we still prefer this ivory tuxedo jacket with black tuxedo pants, we no longer encourage customer to consider not wearing all ivory.
Close Alternatives to this Tuxedo
We do have another Ike Behar tuxedo that is very similar to this tuxedo jacket. The jacket is called Dawson. Dawson is an ivory jacket with a black shawl lapel, a black satin button and black satin lined besom pockets. So if you feel that the Ike Behar Harrison is too much ivory for you, we recommend that you consider this other jacket, with some black satin accents.
