The finishing touch to traditional black tie. These elegant white moiré braces are handmade in England by Albert Thurston, the celebrated English brace maker established in 1820.
The distinctive white moire ribbon has a subtle rippled appearance that catches the light beautifully, complemented by matt white leather ends and polished gold-tone adjusters. The combination creates an appropriately luxurious finish for black tie, weddings and formal evening wear.
Designed with traditional leather button ends, the braces attach to buttons positioned inside the trouser waistband rather than clipping to the outside, maintaining the clean lines of properly tailored evening trousers.
White moiré braces have a particularly strong association with classic evening dress and 007 style, with Albert Thurston braces having appeared on screen as part of James Bond's evening wardrobe.
The brace ribbon is woven in England from a 50% cotton and 50% nylon blend. The runner ends are made from 100% Italian bovine leather, with brass-coloured fittings. Each pair of braces (suspenders) is supplied with six buttons for attaching to trousers.
