Tinie Tempah attended an official dinner party after the 2014 EE British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) at The Grosvenor House Hotel on 16 February 2014 in London, England. The British artiste wore a cream colour shawl collar jacket from Hackett London, over a matching waistcoat, white shirt and cropped black trousers. Black bow tie, velvet slippers and his signature black rimmed glasses completed his look for the event.

Earlier in the evening, Tinie Tempah walked the red carpet in a blue velvet tuxedo from Burberry. He changed into the gorgeous cream coloured tux from Hackett London after his performance of "Heroes" with Laura Mvula. I am debating if I like the waistcoat underneath, but it was a freezing night in London, so let's give him that. I love his cropped trousers showing a bit of 'mankle', helping to keep the look fresh and modern. A cream tux is a brave choice, it can look 'bridal' at times. I thought he pulled off the look pretty well. He took a risk, instead of a box standard black suit, let's give him some credit.

Here is an intimate behind the scenes look when Tinie Tempah went for his suit fitting. You can see he did a good job with the trousers hem with the finished article. (And erm, is he angry or looking fashionably moody?)

And here is my shot from the BAFTA styling suite at The Savoy Hotel London. I am again debating if Tinie Tempah should have included a colourful pocket square. A gorgeous cream tux nonetheless, do you prefer Tinie Tempah in the blue velvet number or in this cream tux?
