Tuxedo Suits

Satin. A tuxedo has satin on the lapels and buttons, and traditionally a satin stripe down the trouser leg; a suit uses one fabric throughout. That makes the tuxedo the more formal of the two, reserved mostly for evening and black tie events. Our full comparison is in tuxedo vs suit, and if a suit is what you need, see all custom suits.

Yes. If the invitation says black tie, a tuxedo is the correct choice. Black tie optional is the looser version: a tuxedo is welcome, but a dark, well-fitted suit with a conservative tie is also acceptable. Our guide to white tie vs black tie goes through each dress code, and what is a tuxedo covers the garment itself.

Each tuxedo on this page shows its current price, and that price covers the jacket and pants cut to your measurements. A rental is a garment you hand back, so compare the two before you decide: our guide to how much it is to rent a suit breaks down what rentals cost and what they include. A vest is a separate piece; see vests.

No. A tuxedo is styled with a cummerbund, a vest or suspenders; a belt belongs with a suit. When you design your tuxedo pants you can choose side adjusters in place of belt loops, so the waist stays clean under the jacket. Our guide to how to wear a tuxedo covers the rest of the accessories.

A black bow tie is the traditional answer, and it is what the black tie dress code is named after. A slim long tie can work with some tuxedo styles at less formal events, but if the invitation says black tie, wear the bow tie. See how to wear a tuxedo for the full look, and tuxedo shirts for the shirt under it.

The shoulder seams end exactly at your natural shoulder edge, and the sleeves end just above the wrist bone so a quarter to half an inch of shirt cuff shows. Those two checks come from our tuxedo fit guide, which covers the chest, waist and pants too. Every tuxedo here is cut to your measurements, and our Fit Promise covers adjustments.

A tuxedo, a formal dress shirt, a black bow tie and black patent leather shoes. Black or dark navy is the safe color for a guest. If you're the groom, order at least a month before the date, and look at wedding suits if the dress code is less formal. Shirts and studs are in tuxedo shirts.
