Guide To The Prom Tuxedo

By Victor Santerino

Besides finding a date, buying or renting a tuxedo is the hardest part of going to prom. This is because as a teenager you have probably never even had to wear a tuxedo yet.

This article was written to help people new to the tuxedo arena find that perfect tux. You will read about issues such as measurements and colors.

The first area to consider is where to get your tuxedo. If at all possible you really should rent or buy your tuxedo. Wearing a brothers, friends, or parents tuxedo will not give you the perfect fit you need to achieve.

The first thing to do after deciding to purchase or buy is to get proper measurements taken. Make sure to get numbers for your neck, waist, chest, inseam, and arm length.

The color you choose should be black when trying to fit in with everyone else. When attempting to be different you can go with a more subtle change like midnight blue or gray or a flashy distinction like white.

Vest colors should coincide with the color of your dates dress. Ensure these colors match up by bringing a piece of material from the dress to the tuxedo shop you buy or rent from.

Accessories can be difficult to put on for a newbie. Make sure you pay careful attention to what the sales person is saying when he gives you instructions on putting items like studs and cuff links onto your shirt.

When renting make sure you get to the rental vendor as soon as you know your prom date. You need to get your tuxedo before the other kids rent the best ones first.

Thank you for reading this article on the prom tuxedo. Feel free to add this article to your bookmarks and return often.
