Morning wear, or a morning suit, is traditionally worn for formal daytime events, such as weddings, royal and state events, formal luncheons, daytime receptions, and certain judicial and legal ceremonies.

In Britain, it is a staple at weddings, especially those held in the morning or early afternoon, with the groom, best man, and male guests often wearing morning suits to maintain a formal and elegant atmosphere. The Royal Ascot, a prestigious horse racing event, requires men in the Royal Enclosure to wear morning suits, including a top hat, adhering strictly to traditional dress codes. Morning wear is also appropriate for state funerals, formal ceremonies involving royalty or high-ranking officials, and church services such as baptisms and high holy days.

Notable figures who frequently wear morning suits include British royalty like Prince William and Prince Harry, who wore them at their weddings, and Prince Charles, who is regularly seen in morning suits at events like the Royal Ascot. Japanese royalty, such as Crown Prince Akishino, also wear morning suits at official ceremonies, showcasing a blend of Western and Japanese formal attire traditions. Political and business leaders, including Winston Churchill and senior Japanese executives, don morning suits for significant events, reflecting the attire's importance and formality.
