But with them being on the rise for fashionistas and every day gentlemen equally, let us explain the difference between these two items. The more information you have, the better fashion decisions you can make. Most of the people think that waistcoat is another linguistic variation of a waistcoat, but it isn’t. There is a tiny difference between the two – a waistcoat is a less formal form of a waistcoat.

About our wedding waistcoats
Our wedding suit waistcoats are completely tailored made to measure. That gives you a perfect fit for special occasions. Choose among our festive colours the most classic or the most daring ones. Show your finest style on weddings and special events.
Why should the groom wear a wedding waistcoat?
A wedding waistcoat makes your look as a groom complete and distinctive. It sets you apart from the guests and shows you've invested in something special for this important day. A custom-fit waistcoat sits perfectly and gives your three-piece suit an elegant silhouette. At Hockerty, you can design it to match your suit or as a stylish contrast piece.
Should the wedding waistcoat match the suit or contrast?
Both options are stylish – it depends on your taste. A waistcoat in the same fabric as the suit creates a classic, elegant three-piece look. A contrast waistcoat in ivory, champagne, or another shade adds a personal touch and can coordinate with the bride's dress or wedding décor. Many grooms also match the waistcoat to the bridesmaids' colors.
What waistcoat style works best for a wedding?
For weddings, both single-breasted and double-breasted waistcoats are popular choices. Single-breasted styles look classic and timeless. Double-breasted waistcoats have more presence and a slightly vintage-inspired feel. Choose between a peaked lapel, shawl collar, or no lapel – whichever best complements your suit and personal style.
Can I fully customise my wedding waistcoat?
Yes, at Hockerty you decide every detail: fabric, buttons (including mother-of-pearl or decorative), lining, pocket style, and cut. Since each waistcoat is made to your exact measurements, it fits perfectly without pulling or gapping. It becomes a true one-of-a-kind piece for your big day.
How does the perfect fit guarantee work?
Our algorithm, trained with over 13 years of customer data, calculates your measurements precisely. If your wedding waistcoat needs adjustments after delivery, we cover the alteration costs. If alterations aren't enough, we remake the piece – ensuring you look perfect on your wedding day.
