Is anyone else going to change after dinner in the evening? I will be changing into my smoking jacket after dinner, as I have done before and was wondering if a cravat would be more appropriate than an untied bow tie? Obviously it is terribly uncouth to have a cigar in ones dinner attire.

Velvet jacket works well. Mustard cords are optional.

Considering you will have to smoke your cigar outside on a cold November night a quilted smoking jacket is probably spot on.

You know you might be onto something there. Of course would have to get a dressing gown, hhhmm something like this would keep me warm while having a smoke waves hand "these are not the PHers you are looking for", "move along"

That is a brilliant dressing gown No one notices if you get changed, I proved that 2 years ago

You noticed us getting changed I think most would notice that  But very few (not even our dates!) noticed we had swapped dresses That was a very surreal night - I haven't drunk vodka since!
