01

What the Bottle Green Velvet Tuxedo is

Green velvet, for the man who already owns black.

The Bottle Green is SALVE's single-breasted velvet tuxedo: deep bottle green cotton velvet blend, a black shawl collar, one covered button and velvet flap pockets. It is the evening jacket for the room where everyone else is in black, and the one people ask about afterwards. It comes with black evening trousers, made to your measurements and fitted at your home in Gurugram or Delhi. ₹39,500 for jacket and trousers.

Why the Bottle Green works

  • Bottle green velvet: the deepest of the evening greens. Formal by lamplight, rich in photographs, and right for a winter lawn.
  • Black shawl collar: ties the colour back to evening dress.
  • One covered button: fastened standing, open when you sit.
  • Velvet flap pockets: a softer, more relaxed front than jetted pockets, made for the party.
  • Jacket and trousers included: a complete velvet tuxedo, not just a jacket.

Best for

Cocktail nights, wedding receptions, black tie optional evenings, Christmas and New Year parties. For the strictest black-tie dinner, choose black or midnight blue.

Questions, answered

Is a green velvet tuxedo correct for black tie?

It is right for black tie optional, receptions, cocktail nights and winter parties. For the strictest black-tie dinner, choose black or midnight blue.

Does the price include trousers?

Yes. ₹39,500 includes the jacket and black evening trousers. The shirt, bow tie and accessories are priced separately.

What bow tie goes with bottle green?

Black, in silk satin or velvet. Keep the shirt white and the shoes black so the green is the only colour.

How is it different from the Supper Club?

The Supper Club is bottle green or oxblood in wool twill, sold as a jacket. The Bottle Green is velvet, with trousers included.

How long does it take?

2 weeks from the measuring visit, with one fitting at day eight. Rush delivery in 7 days.

In their words

Made to measure, and noticed.

Very particular about how my clothes fit, and SALVE got the proportions just right. The shoulders, sleeve length and finish were exactly what I was looking for.

What stood out was the craftsmanship. The stitching is neat, the finishing is precise, and the fabric has a beautiful feel. Really pleased with how the final piece turned out.
Nishant
Had a fixed date I needed the outfit for, and SALVE delivered as promised. The fitting was impeccable, and everything was ready well in time. A very smooth experience.
Akshay
Excellent service from the first appointment to the final fitting. They listened carefully, understood what I wanted and paid attention to the smaller details. Would happily order again.
Jay
The fabric selection was the highlight for me. They explained the options well and helped me choose something that suited the garment. The finished result did full justice to the fabric.
Amnay
I usually need several alterations to get the fit right. With SALVE, the fitting was remarkably precise. The garment sits beautifully, and the attention to proportion really shows.
Ishan
Beautiful fabric, sharp tailoring and delivery on the date committed. I also appreciated how responsive the team was throughout. Very happy with both the garment and the service.
