Perfect Fit Tuxedo Tips

Tuxedo Hem No-No's!

The differences between the tux you rent from a big box retailer and the one you get from a My Fabulous Day tuxedo specialist are too many to count! We assure you it will fit like a glove and can alter onsite to make this happen.

Here are a few tips to keep in mind when looking for a perfect fit: 
1. The shoulder seams should hit at the actual shoulder, the sleeves don't come past your thumbs.
2. You shouldn't fit more than a fist in between the fastened jacket and your chest.
3. As for the pants, a little break is okay; a lot of break is unacceptable.

So remember these above tips, rent from a My Fabulous Day specialist and always try-on your tuxedo before leaving the store to ensure a perfect fit every time!

Tuxedo Hem Yes!

Prom Tuxedo Tips

It’s that time of year! Prom is around the corner for most of our high school readers. For some it’s exciting for others it may feel more like a task, but either way we are ready to help. When a girl gets ready for prom, she usually checks out the red carpet pictures at Hollywood events to find inspiration, and I feel guys should do the same.

You’re either going to prom solo or with a date- this will somewhat decipher what tuxedo you will wear.

Prom Tuxedo for Solo Guy:
When choosing a tuxedo opt for darker colors: black, charcoal or navy are the best. Gray, chocolate, and maybe, just maybe a light khaki-ish or tan color. But honestly black is best, and if you feel black is too plain then choose a pinstripe black tuxedo. Pick an accessory color that best describes your personal style.

Prom Tuxedo for the Guy With a Date:
When you’re attending the prom with a date you really only have two options:

1. Coordinate your accessory color with her 
2. Wear a neutral color that will match with anything.


When you are with a date you do NOT want to upstage her– she’s spent hours and hours picking out the perfect dress. Your tuxedo should compliment and highlight her dress. It’s better to keep it classic but stylish, meaning your best bet is to wear a black tuxedo!
