Custom
Clothing Comes to Classic Tuxedo
Tuxedo Retailer Revives Tailor Fitted Garments
Waltham, MA, June 16, 2003 - Nowadays,
it seems that everything is more relaxed, casual. A bride and
groom can register for dishwasher safe dinnerware in lieu of
china or furnish a great room with big screen TV instead of a
formal parlor. They might even wear jeans or cargo pants for "dress down days" at
work. But one place they won't look dressed down is at their
wedding. According to survey results published by Bridal Guide
magazine, 96% of grooms wear a tuxedo for their special day.
Because there are so many formalwear options available today,
grooms are able to "dress up" comfortably but with
style.The latest formalwear trends for fall 2003 include designer
names, laydown collar shirts and plain front trousers. With new
technology and fabrications grooms can look dressed up while
feeling dressed down.
Designer tuxedos have always been
a favorite of executives, leaders and trendsetters. Today,
designer tuxedos still have a devout following and are available
for any man who wants to look great. For Fall 2003, one of
the hottest names in street wear, FUBU, brings its unique lifestyle
to the formalwear scene. One of the most popular looks this
wedding season is the FUBU black-on-black shadow striped, four-button
notch lapel tuxedo with signature FUBU buttons. With a broad
shoulder and 35" length jacket, the look provides an easy
fit with elegant styling. You can pair the jacket with matching
striped trousers or solid black if you prefer. Accented with
FUBU's signature vest and neckwear available in charcoal, black
or platinum, the look becomes city smart. Bill Tzizik, owner
and operator of the Classic Tuxedo retail store chain, said,"In
addition to the hot new four-button jackets, two and three
button closure tuxedo jackets by some of the world's finest
designers continue to be popular choices for weddings."
Monsieur Givenchy, a new designer
available in the local tuxedo rental market for 2003, succeeds
in capturing
the popularity of the multi-button look with his
new rental tuxedo that features an exquisitely tailored two-button,
single-breasted, black, satin notch lapel design. The multi-button
tuxedo jacket rend gets a burst of color with The Barrington
from Chaps by Ralph Lauren. Platinum in color, it features
a three-button, 32" long single-breasted jacket, sure
to be a stand out on your wedding day. For more traditional
styles, grooms can choose a single or double-breasted peak,
notch or shawl lapel tuxedo. Perry Ellis offers a classic single-breasted
peak that provides a distinctive formal look when accented
with a contemporary full back vest and tie.
For
years, tuxedo trousers have been double or even triple pleated
in the front. The new trend in tuxedo trousers imitates the
trend in casual men's wear, the plain front trouser. The new
non-pleated trouser features a flat, smooth front design. The
satin side stripe gives this pant its formal flair.In addition
to the classic, white, wing collar shirt worn with a tuxedo,
grooms now have the option of a formal laydown collar shirt.
With new micro-fiber technology, Bill Tzizik of Classic Tuxedo
said, " Tallia Uomo's new grey, microfiber non-pleated,
laydown collar shirt, gives you get the color and comfort of
casualwear in formalwear."
Define your style with accessories.
Vests are the "must
have" accessory for fall. Fullback styling, now in rental,
mimics expensive vests previously available only for purchase.
Cutting edge, The Bellagio Vest Collection by Mel Howard, features
subtle sharkskin fabric with barely noticed nailhead design
in 13 colors, sure to coordinate with any bridesmaid dress.
The high button front vest complements new neckwear styles.
Bow ties are still the most traditional neckwear but grooms
can also choose a euro tie (similar to a necktie but features
a fancy wrapped knot and an adjustable band that wraps around
the neck) for a fresh look. Collar enhancers (a satin band
worn around the neck with a button cover attached) or a solitaire
jewelry button cover available in gold, silver and rhinestone
can add pizzazz. And for the groom who wants to look great
down to his toes, a new matt finish, box toe tip shoe with
lace-up closure is perfect for hitting the dance floor.
When shopping for a tuxedo,
grooms can visit their local formalwear specialists or surf
the internet. Websites like www.classictuxedo.com offer a new
world of services and information online.
Leave the casual look of your every day wardrobe behind without
sacrificing comfort on your wedding day. A true classic from
generation to generation, dress up in a tuxedo.
