In ''IX'' and ''XI'', the jacket is black now and trousers were no longer part of the suit, but a red rose is worn as a boutonniere in the jacket's left pocket. The suit in ''III'' included a pink vest worn underneath the jacket and has a handkerchief worn in the jacket's pocket.
 
In most cases, the smart suit has been more protective than some suits of armor and provides a high bonus to the wearer's [[Style]] or [[Charm]]. It is one of the few non-joke pieces of equipment reserved for men.
