I wore this twice for a Hatsumiyamairi (Shinto shrine visit for newborns) and a wedding. The tie is the type that attaches to the buttons and is removable. It's made of soft fabric, and the waist is elastic, making it easy to put on and take off. After washing, I folded it and stored it at home in a Ziploc bag. Please understand this before considering a purchase. - Color: Gray and black check pattern - Style: Formal dress suit - Accessories: With tie - Material: Cotton blend - Design: Set of button-down shirt and pants Thank you for looking.
