Tailcoat
A tailcoat is a knee-length coat (clothing), coat characterised by a rear section of the skirt (known as the ''tails''), with the front of the skirt cut away. The tailcoat shares its historical origins in clothes cut for convenient horse-riding in the Early Modern era. From the 18th century, however, tailcoats evolved into general forms of Morning dress , day and White tie , evening formal wear, in parallel to how the lounge suit succeeded the frock coat (19th century) and the justacorps (18th century). Thus, in 21st-century Western dress codes for men, mainly two types of tailcoats have survived: #Tailcoat#Dress coat, Dress coat, an evening wear item with a squarely cut-away front, worn for formal white tie #Tailcoat#Morning coat, Morning coat (or ''cutaway'' in American English), a day-wear item with a gradually tapered front cut away, worn for formal morning dress In colloquial language without further specification, "tailcoat" typically designates the former, that is the e ...

In addition, formal wear is often properly worn when displaying official full size orders and medals. The protocol specifying men's traditional formal wear has remained virtually unchanged since the early 20th century.
