Morning dress is essentially formal day wear; generally a black feather weave morning coat with a contrast colour vest, usually in a pastel shade or a buff or dove grey, paired with a formal trouser, which is known as a cashmere stripe. Cashmere stripe trousers aren't actually made from cashmere; this is the name of the stripe pattern. There are no set rules when buying a cashmere stripe trouser, and there are many different designs. Dario's personal preference is for a strong contrast between black and grey, and without too wide a stripe.

There are two main morning suit designs to choose from; the traditional black, with a cashmere stripe trouser, or for summer, you could also wear an all grey morning suit. If grey, all three pieces need to be the same colour, usually in a shark's tooth fabric.
