There are two levels of evening formal attire for gentlemen, white tie and black tie, white tie being the more formal. White tie is the black swallow tail coat, black trousers with a satin stripe down the sides, black patent leather shoes, a white vest and a white bow tie. Black tie is the same trousers and shoes, but a jacket cut like a business suit but with black satin lapels. This is worn with a black satin cummerbund (pleats open up) and a black bow tie. During warm weather a white or off white dinner jacket may be substituted for the black jacket, though the black jacket may be worn year 'round.
These are evening formal dress and should NEVER be worn in the daytime. For daytime formal events a morning suit is worn. This consists of grey striped trousers and a grey swallow tail coat.

The censor got me. The word that was removed begins with "h" and ends with "e" and means dislike.

Shall I post a photo of me dressed in my white tie and tails?
Poor Baby! You need to get out in civilized society more. Come to San Francisco the first week in September when we have opening night of the Symphony and opening night of the Opera and go to both events. You'll see people dressed to the nines, women and men, both. Or book a cruise vacation on one of the upscale lines like Cunard or Holland America (NOT Carnival!) and pack your evening gowns for formal nights. As I said, dressing for dinner is so civilized.
Though I've never been there, I've heard that Mexico City is very much a dress up town. I remember reading in a travel column that if you ever want to feel under dressed, go to Mexico City. They wear tuxedos every evening there. Yes, Mexico City. Who knew?
Or go to London. The first time I was there we were walking around Westminster just as some formal event was ending in the Cathedral was ending. People were streaming out with the ladies wearing nice dresses, hats and long gloves and the gentlemen wearing their grey morning suits and grey top hats. I said to my traveling companion that I think England is the most civilized nation on Earth.
Seeing that made the idea of getting a morning suit cross my mind. (I'm a terrible clothes horse.) But I don't know when I'd wear it. Though evening formal events come up with some regularity, often enough to justify having the clothes, in my seventy years of life I've never been to a daytime formal event and I rather doubt I'll ever go to one.
As I said, I'm a terrible clothes horse. At least forty suits in addition to my formal wear. I do like to dress up.
