Victorian men's jacket black with brocade and gold buttons

For men who want to dress as an eighteenth-century captain, pirate, or dark nobleman, the Victorian jacket for men is a long black jacket with a brocade pattern, velvet lapels, and gold-colored domed buttons. The jacket is intended for adults and comes into its own at Halloween, a pirate party, or a historical theme party. You can choose from sizes S, M, L, XL, and XXL.

What does the Victorian jacket for men look like?

• The jacket is entirely black and features an interwoven brocade pattern of leafy vines that catches the light.
• The lapels, collar, and cuffs are made of a velvety black material, with gold-colored domed buttons in two rows on the front.
• At the front, the jacket is short, reaching the hips, while at the back it continues in long panels down to approximately knee height, creating the silhouette of a tailcoat.
• The jacket is made of 100% polyester and should be hand-washed; do not bleach, tumble dry, iron, or dry clean.
• The style is intended for men and is available in five sizes, from S to XXL.

The Victorian look as a costume theme

This jacket style originated in nineteenth-century menswear, where a short front with long back panels was considered elegant evening wear. Costume parties have adopted this style for a variety of characters: a pirate captain, a gothic count, or a nineteenth-century gentleman. Because it is a single garment and not a complete set, you decide which direction the look will take with what you wear underneath. A white ruffled shirt gives it a pirate feel, while a black shirt makes it dark and gothic.

Accessories for the Victorian jacket

Combine the jacket with a top hat or a tricorne pirate hat, round tinted glasses with copper-colored frames, and a walking stick with a decorative knob. A large decorative chain or rings enhance the gothic look, and with some pale makeup and dark eyes, you can create a count-like appearance. Black boots and black trousers complete the look.
