Groom Semi-Frock Coat Black Steampunk Gothic with Satin Waistcoat Made-to-Measure - Model CHAV019 | Mario Moyano

Groom Semi-Frock Coat Black Steampunk Gothic: Victorian Darkness in Black and Ruby Made to Your Measure

This groom semi-frock coat in black with satin piping on lapels and pocket piping is the darkest and most distinctive piece of our gothic steampunk line, fusing the elegance of the semi-frock coat (15 cm shorter than the morning suit, reusable as a normal suit after the event) with the darkness of ruby red in the claw-skull cane, the metallic gothic appliques of the hat and the Victorian metallic details. It is the ideal starting point to create a unique groom suit with unmistakable personality, exactly as you envision it. At Mario Moyano, you decide every element: from the final fabric to the coordination of accessories, including cut, finishes, and complete shirt customization. Model CHAV019 is designed to give you maximum flexibility in your made-to-measure suit, ensuring a precise fit and a result that reflects your unique personality.

🎩 What is a semi-frock coat and why choose it for your gothic steampunk wedding?

The semi-frock coat is a hybrid garment whose base starts from a standard 1-button suit with peak lapel, but is extended to 85 cm to cover the hips and provide a more ceremonial effect, emulating the cut of the morning suit. Unlike the full frock coat (90 cm) or the morning suit (100 cm), the semi-frock coat maintains the structure of a suit with its front pockets, which gives it a unique advantage: after the event, the length can be shortened and reused as a 1-button suit for later occasions. It is the perfect choice for grooms seeking the elegance of a ceremonial garment without sacrificing long-term investment. At Mario Moyano, our semi-frock coat is crafted from a single piece without a waist seam (with waist seam option available if desired) to give a cleaner and more stylized image.

In the reference image, this groom semi-frock coat is presented with satin piping on lapels and pocket piping, coordinated with a crossed waistcoat with shawl lapel in satin with 8 Victorian metallic buttons, black background fabric with satin floral designs and pocket piping in satin, cravat and matching pocket square in red satin, tie pin with carved ruby red stone, white satin shirt with mixed straight double hole cuff and hidden ceremony placket, metallic skull design cufflinks with crystal eyes, metallic waistcoat chain with fine ruby-tone red crystal rhinestones, elastic black suspenders, black leather or patent leather lace-up shoes, black wood cane with metallic claw design knob holding skull with carved ruby red crystal eyes and black short-hair top hat with metallic gothic appliques. Each piece is constructed using updated pattern-making techniques and strict quality control. The result is a groom suit with impeccable drape, comfort throughout the day and a coordination of details that sets you apart.

✨ Customize your gothic steampunk groom semi-frock coat: you decide every detail

Customization is at the center of our process. With model CHAV019 as your starting point, you configure:

• Base fabric for semi-frock coat: Classic black, or choose another tone from our premium selection according to your preference.
• Satin piping on lapels and pockets: Included as standard on this model, adding an elegant and shiny contrast on multiple areas. You can also opt for full satin lapel or traditional lapel according to your style.
• Fully satin waistcoat: Crossed with shawl lapel with 8 Victorian metallic buttons, black background fabric with satin floral designs and pocket piping in satin. The fully satin waistcoat (not just lapels) adds a more opulent and Victorian look.
• Closure style: This model features classic closure, but you can opt for a double button with chain for a brooch effect, or frog closures for an authentic military tunic or historical jacket effect.
• Semi-frock coat cut: Crafted from a single piece without a waist seam (waist seam option available if desired). Modern tailored (slim fit), classic relaxed or extreme slim fit, adapted to your physique.
• Trouser customization: Adjustable hem width to your liking (standard 19 cm for size 43; classic options of 20-21 cm or slim/ankle-length style of 17-18 cm). Customizable front pleats (standard flat front, with option for 1 or 2 pleats). Waistband of your choice: classic with button and belt loops, or 5-7 cm versions without belt loops, featuring side or back buckles for a perfect fit without a belt.
• Ceremony shirt (7 customizable collar styles):
  • Italian Collar (Cutaway): Very open and short points towards the shoulders. Highly formal and elegant. Perfect to wear without a jacket. Requires wide knots like the Windsor.
  • French Collar (Spread): Intermediate points. The most versatile for office and formal events. Accepts any type of knot (Windsor, half-Windsor or American).
  • English Collar (Standard): Long, narrow and close points. Traditional and sober. Ideal for slimming round faces. Requires fine knots like the Four-in-Hand.
  • American Collar (Button-Down): With buttons at the ends to fix the points. The most informal and casual. Not recommended for ceremonies. Traditionally without a tie.
  • Penny/Club Collar (Round): Short and fully rounded points. Retro and vintage air. Complemented with a tie pin or small knots.
  • Tuxedo Collar (Wingtip): Rigid collar with points folded down. Exclusive for black tie. Only for bow tie, never with a traditional tie.
  • Mao Collar (Mandarin): Vertical strip without lapels. Informal, minimalist and summery. Forbidden to wear with a tie or bow tie.
• Cuff types (mixed straight double hole cuff recommended): This model uses the mixed straight cuff with double hole, which allows normal buttoning or cufflink use, adding versatility to the gothic steampunk look. You can also opt for square double cuff or rounded double cuff according to your preference.
• Lining: Plain, fine stripe or paisley print, in matching or contrasting tones.
• Button type: Victorian metallic (like the waistcoat ones), covered, plastic or mother-of-pearl, according to your aesthetic preference.
• Cravat and pocket square: Red satin matching, or choose another color to harmonize with the gothic steampunk style.
• Recommended shoes:
  • Lace-up shoes in black leather or patent leather (the one in the reference photo).
  • Combined lace-up moccasins with leather or patent leather and the suit fabric itself.
  • Slippers in patent leather or suit fabric, simple or with personalized embroidery.
