Accessory Advice for Grooms
Create a Captivating Look for Spring Weddings
Boston, MA, December 6, 2004 – More
grooms dress formally than not and why not? What could be more
luxurious than a tuxedo? But while wearing a tuxedo is a rare
experience you can afford but not afford to miss, it’s
the awesome accessory options that abound today that give the
tuxedo a personalized look. The experts at Classic Tuxedo say
for spring 2005, formal accessories are all about luxury. Colors,
lightweight fabrics and attention to detail are what will create
a captivating look for your spring wedding.
It used to be that a black rental tuxedo came with a black
satin cummerbund and bow tie. Nowadays, although black is still
the most popular color choice in tuxedos, colorful accessories
from shirts to vests to neckwear are available in a variety
of styles and fabrics. The textures, fabrics and designs of
formal accessories are also luxurious. Bill Tzizik, CEO of
Classic Tuxedo said, “Non-pleated, microfiber, laydown
collar shirts from manufacturers like Tallia Uomo are popular
because they feel incredibly like silk and they don’t
wrinkle.” Shirts are not only available in a wing collar
style but also in today’s popular laydown collar style,
plain front or pleated front, you choose.
To complement the high button stance of today’s tuxedos,
grooms may choose to wear a vest instead of cummerbund. High
button, fullback vests like the Bellagio Collection from Mel
Howard use a sumptuous subtle sharkskin fabric with a barely
noticed nailhead design detail. Sharkskin not quite your style?
How about a rich herringbone vest? Pair it with a bow tie for
a traditional look or a coordinating Windsor tie or cravat
for a contemporary look. Accessory color choices are endless
and range from the classic platinum and eggshell to spearmint,
Caribbean mist or frosty pink.
Although the bow tie is the epitome is formal elegance and
always in style, some men may choose to go for a more contemporary
look when selecting their neckwear. Windsor ties, wide neckties
worn in a loose bow, or cravats, banded scarf-like ties, are
popular looks for spring.
Men even have their choice of formal trouser. Popular plain
front styles with satin side stripe or pleated style, it’s
up to you. And it’s fine to wear the black cuff links
and studs that come with your tux rental but why would you?
There are so many gorgeous cuff link and stud sets available
for purchase, from mother of pearl to black onyx, they’re
the type of special detail that will make your ensemble even
more unique than you imagined. And don’t forget the formal
black patent leather shoes and formal hosiery. Not sure if
you can decide what look suits you best? Let your formalwear
specialist help you design the details for your one of a kind
look.
For your spring wedding, treat yourself to a little luxury.
Striking in any combination, pair your tuxedo with some awesome
accessories for a look that’s uniquely yours.
