Black tie doesn't mean black tie - it means DJ with bow tie.
And shirts with different collars look ridiculous and should stay in the early 2000s where they belong

that's not Black tie though
In fairness I wear a black dinner shirt, black bow tie and red waistcoat, normally not bothering with the jacket itself; oh and normally take the bow tie off within 5mins a la this, which is a couple of years ago with - I don't have that hair anymore which as someone on here put, makes me look slightly downs!!!

As Rich said, a 'Black Tie' event is a DJ jobby. Rent one out for the night from your local tailor/suit shop, it won't cost much. Traditionally you wear a bow tie but you can get away with a black tie if you want.
