I have tried a lot of different concealed carry holsters and Versacarry is my choice.
I use all the time, for .380, .38 revolver, and 740slim.
I will be getting one for my officer 45.
It holds the gun by the inner barrel, and is the smallest holster I ever used, and
I have a drawer full of holsters

Heck, my #2 son got married with a Ruger Flat Top .357 (a wedding gift from his bride) strapped to his hip, under his tux. in a Tom Threepersons open top holster. I noticed the bulge and so did his mother. Truly a Kentucky wedding! Rod
The event was actually white tie, my sister's wedding back in '73 I had a lightweight commander in my cummerbund. I only report what I did. I don't necessarily encourage anyone to follow my example. I risked the .45 sliding down my pants leg and rattling across the floor. I reccommend less my warning to my future brother-in-law. "I know you'll be nervous. When you walk down the aisle you may feel an impulse to bolt. Go ahead. I love runnings shots."
My only viable option if I'll be taking off my jacket is a Taurus 738 on my weak side interior ankle. It's the only thing I have small and light enough for ankle carry without discomfort. But such a gun is strictly utilitarian and hardly seems appropriate for black tie.
If I knew for sure that my jacket would not be coming off, which is the case most often for a suit and almost invariably for a tuxedo, the options open up to anything I can carry in an IWB rig or a higher-riding belt rig. I'd carry something with more capacity or at least in a larger caliber. And since it's black tie, carrying a plastic gun would be just wrong, so it'd be either a Baby Eagle, a BDA, or a revolver.
I'd have to pick up a black holster for my 2.5" Security Six. Yeah, I think that'd be my choice.
Whenever I have to dress formal or wear a suit and tie, I carry the smallest gun I
have, the Ruger LCP, in a pocket holster in the inside pocket in my jacket. Wearing
a suit jacket actually makes it somewhat easier to carry in most situations.
Like the fellow mentioned above, wearing a suit to a black tie (read tuxedo) affair is cause for revocation of the gentleman card. A metaphor I used with my young sons years back to teach them the fine art of behaving properly with women.
To retain ones card, only a real tux will do. And with that tux, any item of mass and weight in a pocket will distort the shape and fit of the garment and you're within a hairsbreadth of losing ones card.
The only technique is a tight-fitting shoulder holster with a modest sized gun (a plausible reason why James carried a small caliber weapon) and/or an ankle holster with another modest sized semi.
No gun in pockets or in cumber bun. And while we're at it, no baseball caps turned backwards. Nothing.
