    Harrod's of London stripe dress pant

    It looks like a pair of trousers that went with a tailcoat. The two braids covering up the side seams of the trousers are found on a white tie ensemble.

    Pleats without cuffs?

    I have both cuffed and uncuffed, but I'm leaning toward uncuffed for all my future purchases since I'm only average height. I guess if I were taller, I'd probably go with some cuffs.
