The tuxedos are mens suits that are mainly tailored to be worn to special events especially the formal and semi formal ones. They are usually sewn with different colors and from different fabrics. The traditional tuxedo is always black with the shirt in white. The tuxedo is always worn with a bow tie so that it perfectly completes the formal look. There are also tuxedos available in different colors that are brighter and there is also an increase in introduction of different designs into it. Most of the men tend to rent out a tuxedo than to own it but it is always best to own one. This is because of the fact that the perfect fit is one of the most important aspect when it comes to tuxedos.

The major difference between a suit and a tuxedo is the inclusion of satin or grosgrain into the lapels by the form of facings in a tuxedo. This satin or grosgrain incorporation in the tuxedo jacket also continues in stripes along the sides of the tuxedo trousers. This is what sets apart the tuxedo for the formal events. The shirts worn with tuxedos are also different most of the times, like pleated shirts and shirts with studs instead of buttons. There is also most of the times a cummerbund or waistcoat that is worn with the tuxedos to get a streamlined look from shoulder to toes. While the vest of the tuxedos are like a normal vest of the suit sometimes they also come in backless versions that are to be held by the straps at the back. Cummerbunds are waistbands that are worn around the waist instead of using a vest. A vest and a cummerbund should never be worn together.

For the formal events you can always go with solid colored tuxedos. Black and white tuxedos is the most formal type but if you want a different look then you can go with other colors like midnight blue and darker ones like maroon, olive green and burgundy. It is best to keep the color dark since most of the events are held at evenings and lighter colors look dull under artificial light. Apart from going with these colors you can also go with patterned tuxedos. You can incorporate different designs and patterns into these tuxedos to create a distinct look that makes you stand out from the rest of the crowd.

If you are going to stick with the formal styles then you can go with traditional patterns like pinstriped tuxedos and plaid tuxedos. Other than this if you are going for a more casual cool look then you can go with some other casual patterns. Especially when you are incorporating pattern like paisley and floral patterns onto a silk tuxedo they look even more classy and sophisticated. Wearing these patterned tuxedos in bright colors will ensure that you stand out among the sea of the usual black and white tuxedos.
