“How am I supposed to stand out when everybody gets dressed up?” – Kanye West.

Ralph Lauren Lisbon

Every guy wants to look amazing in formalwear & here are a few tips to stand out (in a goood way) wearing black tie formal  on Prom night! 


1. Go with a low stance – creating a longer, more lengthening (and thus more flattering) “V” shape.


2. Go for slim. Garments look dressier and sharper the slimmer they fit (within reason and without being “tight”). 


3. For a clean and minimal look, go with a hidden placket shirt with a point collar.


4. Leave the straight ties for the work. It’s a tux – go with a bowtie 


5. Keep your cufflinks simple, elegant, and a stick to silver, black and/or white palette. 


6. Tuxedos are minimal garments. Originally men wore these simple black & white outfits to let women in their gowns garner the deserved attention. With that said, tuxedo trousers should not have belt loops. Go with side-adjusters!


7. Back in the day the standard tuxedo was ventless. But that was back in the day. A double vented jacket is most flattering and looks most chic.

Find the most Flattering Tuxedo

You may think....

that all tuxedos are the same but they are certainly not! Your groom needs to show off his sense of style with the perfect fitting tuxedo. How do you know if his Tuxedo fits right? 

Keep these tips in mind when choosing the tuxedo for your fabulous groom! 

Tall & Thin

Congratulations. You can wear just about any

tuxedo, from contemporary styles -- like single breasted four button jackets -- to a more classic, double-breasted tuxedo with broad shoulders One caveat: Make sure your trouser legs and jacket arms are long enough.

Athletic

Go for a smooth, clean look without a lot of frills. Avoid double-breasted jackets which add volume. If you have a large waist, consider wearing a vest. Keep in mind that black has a slimming effect, which makes the classic tux perfect for you. If you’re extremely muscular, be aware of sizing, especially around your neck. You don’t want to feel like your bow tie is strangling you.

Short and Slim

Avoid styles that look too large on your frame. Steer clear of double-breasted jackets. Instead, go for a two- or three-button jacket with a low button stance (it elongates the body), paired with classic tuxedo pants.

Short and Athletic

Stick with a single-breasted jacket. Go for a classic one or two button jacket with a low-button stance which will keep your look streamlined and slim. If you have a heavy waist, choose a vest to draw attention away from your waistline and up toward your face. And once again, remember that black
has a slimming effect, which makes the classic tux perfect for you.
