The awards are multiple times and fashion mavens anxiously watch the stars as they parade down the red carpet. Last year, stars like Brad Pitt and Steve Van Zandt had to endure the nastiest fashion clothing comments.
The two stars made the simple mistake of transforming their expensive haute couture tuxedos into unconventional suits. Now, not all of us can afford these high end tuxedos but we can rent tuxedos for special occasions.
To prevent being panned, it’s a good idea to find out what fashion gurus consider the yes’s and complete no’s when it comes to wearing a tuxedo.
Long pants
Flat-fronted trousers are the most popular today, but they should cover the top of the shoe without exposing the sock or the top of the shoe. Brad Pitt made the mistake of wearing slacks and his pants pooled over his shoes. It’s an absolute no-no and you need to find pants that are the perfect size. If you can’t find the perfect length, ask a tailor to take the pants up or down for a perfect fit.
Brand
Popular brands such as Wilkes Barre tuxedos are the most popular with consumers, as they also make high-end and mid-range tuxedos. You will also find gorgeous haute couture tuxedos from brands like Armani, Gucci, Hugo Boss, etc. in these shops. Fashion gurus recommend buying or renting a brand name tuxedo as it is cut and fitted by expert tailors. This tuxedo also requires minimal fitting and fits almost every body type.
Buy vs rent
Buying is always a good idea but not everyone can afford $1000 to $2000 branded clothes. As a result, fashion experts also recommend using tuxedo rental websites that stock high-end tuxedos from designers. Tuxedo rentals are much more affordable and cost an average of around $50 to around $200 or less. The rental shop will also stock you with beautiful accessories like shoes, socks, bow ties, belts etc. in matching hues and textures to rent. For a solo event, it’s better to rent than buy a tuxedo, but make sure you rent from the best retailer.
General tips
- Rent the entire tuxedo from one retailer to ensure color matching. If possible, also rent accessories from the same retailer as they usually offer bulk rentals.
- If you’re looking to buy, wait for the off-season or a discount sale to pop up. Branded tuxedos can easily get expensive and discount sales are the best time to buy one.
- Rented tuxedos must be returned the day after the event. Most retailers make tuxedo returns easy by providing a box and paying for a ticket for the return process.
In the end, it all boils down to self-confidence. Don’t follow fashion and choose the trendiest style. Choose a classic tuxedo that fits well because it fits almost every body type and flatters them immensely. Classic colors of black or midnight blue are also very popular and flatter almost any body shape. Take time to browse the inventory at www.savvibysarno.com to find the latest styles and suits.
