Barathea is the traditional cloth of the dinner jacket, and this solid black barathea silk cummerbund is cut to match it. Handmade in England, its fine, pebbled weave gives a soft matt finish that sits quietly beneath a dinner jacket. Four pleats face upwards in the time-honoured manner, and it stands 14cm deep at the front, fastening at the back with metal hooks and adjusting to fit waists of approximately 74–115cm (29–45in). Worn in place of a waistcoat, it creates a clean line between shirt and trousers. For those who prefer a muted, correct finish to black tie dress, barathea is the classic choice, and a natural companion to a barathea bow tie.
