A question about a set of Tails and cuffs

Hello Gents,

During the 30's we all know cuffs were and boy were they wonderful. I was wondering, during the great 30's would one have cuffs on their pants when wearing a set of tails?

Absolutely not!

Color wise, we know the traditional black, have you ever seen dark blue?

Not in tails. Midnight blue was used for dinner style tuxedos back then, mainly in lighter weights and for summer wear.

I almost bought a blue one today at the expo.

And you shouldn't use the same pants for a Tux as for Tails. The Tux has a single side ribbon and Tails have two ribbons.
