cummerbund
This garment is strictly associated with formal evening wear, specifically the black-tie dress code. It serves both a functional purpose, by masking the gap between the shirt and trousers, and an aesthetic one, providing a polished, streamlined silhouette for the wearer.
In modern fashion, the cummerbund is often viewed as a traditional or old-fashioned accessory, frequently replaced by a low-cut waistcoat. It is almost exclusively worn with a tuxedo or dinner jacket and is never paired with a standard business suit.
