The Best Way To Store A Tuxedo

By Victor Santerino

The tuxedo is the ultimate party suit and is worn by billions of people a year. However, this garment is not worn very often by most people and is therefore in storage most of the time.

This piece was written to offer advice on how to properly store tuxedos. Upon finishing this article you will know more about tuxedo storage than you did before.

Firstly a person should examine the material and color before putting their tuxedo into storage. Look for discoloring stains or blemishes and make sure they are removed before putting the tuxedo away.

Appraise the tuxedo for splits in material before tucking it away in your storage area. Looking for these damages will give you the luxury of being able to pull out a perfect tux from storage the next time you wear it.

Storage placement needs to be the next operation to look into. Be positive that you are placing your tux in a place that is out of direct sunlight and extremely clean. You do not want to find a dirty or faded tuxedo in place of the nice one you put away a year or two ago.

Moths can be deadly to all of your clothes and your tuxedo is no exception. Place cedar materials in or around your tuxedo to deter these insects.

Lastly make sure to air out the tuxedo occasionally and check it for a proper fit. Bodies shrink and expand and sometimes clothes that fit six months ago will not fit today.

Add this page to your list of important bookmarks and come back to it every time you don your tux. This advice will be as prevalent a year from now as it is today.
