The
stroller, also known as a
Stresemann, a
director, or simply
black lounge is a form of men's
semi-formal daytime dress comprising a single- or double-breasted coat (grey or black), grey striped or checked
formal trousers, a
necktie (grey or silver), and a
waistcoat (dove grey, funeral black, or
buff). This makes it largely identical to the formal
morning dress from which it is derived, with the exchange of a
suit jacket for a
morning coat, and the almost exclusive use of a
necktie and turndown collar. The correct hat is a
bowler,
boater hat or
Homburg.
