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!

Perfect Fit Tuxedo!

Do all men think… I’m a big guy so I have to have big clothes? It's so not true! Close to the body does not mean uncomfortable.” Look at LeBron James, The Rock and Tom Brady to name a few! They look amazing in their tuxedos (and everyday clothes too) but wouldn't dream of a baggy suit! What’s weird is that guys spend all this time within the culture of the gym, getting toned, fit bodies, and then they wear suit coats that are two sizes too big!, Why not show off all that hard work! 

Jean Yves Fitted Twlight Tuxedo

Tailored is your friend,” Remember this next time you are in need of formalwear! Wether your getting married, shopping for prom or just a night out on the town, you can find a varity of fitted tuxedo styles at your local My Fabulous Day retailer!

Allure Men by Jean Yves!

Allure Bridals introduces "Allure Romance" as a new concept for the Fall 2012 season. Formerly know as Exclusive Bridals by Allure, this refined collection gives brides fresh and innovative designs along with Allure's renowned quality and value. With an emphasis on feminine details, Allure Romance caters to the bride searching for a classic, timeless look. 

The campaign for Allure Romance will paint a picture for the bride to see not only how she will look on her Fabulous Day, but how her groom and bridesmaids will look as a whole. Each image is a timeless, stolen moment of a couple in love, or a bride and her best friends. With video to accompany the print campaign, Allure hopes to bring this collection to life and create a story that brides will fall in love with. To keep that same theme, the collection itself will be more focused on chic, traditional designs with a more moderate price point compared to Allure or Couture collections, while maintaining the renowned quality of our flagship collection.

Allure is partnering with Jean Yves, a leader in the formalwear industry to bring us Allure Men by Jean Yves! Jean Yves strives to provide its customers with dynamic styling and exceptional quality. They have been working on this collaboration for some time now and both are very excited to launch this new line of tuxedos into the marketplace. For the Allure Men by Jean Yves collection, the focus is on luxurious fabrics, flattering silhouettes, modern styling, perfect for today's man.  The collection will be featured in My Fabulous Day stores later this fall!

Tuxedos (with a twist) at the 2012 Grammy Awards!!!

The Grammy Awards red carpet are often all about the shock factor -- who could forget Lady Gaga and that stupid egg? -- but there were plenty of stars who opted for old-fashioned glamour, including host LL Cool J, who's known for his fashion choices. LL arrived in style pairing his formal black tuxedo with some fabulous headgear. Here are some of our favorites from tonight! 

Hillary Scott, Dave Haywood, Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum

John Legend looked super smart in a skinny black shawl tuxedo and posed happily for the cameras with his fiancée, Chrissy Teigen

Kings Of Leon kept it very European. The skinny look was first and foremost with this group!  

When your Paul McCartney you can wear what ever tuxedo you want! 

Ryan Seacrest played it safe in a black two button notch tuxedo

Ice T arrived in an all black tuxedo with wife Coco ahead of the show. The glamour model wore a plunging black maxi-length gown

If it says "Black Tie Optional" -Bottom Line: Wear a Tux!

If the night calls for a black tie tuxedo, you don’t have to be just another penguin and you don’t have to be afraid to rent one. Renting a tuxedo allows you the pleasure of not spending hundreds of dollars for an suit you’ll only wear a few times and you’ll be able to rent the latest style and get a perfect fit tuxedo. Renting is easier than you think, but knowing how to wear a tuxedo will single you out as a man who knows how to dress well when the occasion calls for only the best.

Lately, we’ve noticed the garish trend of men opting out of the tuxedo. They either think it’s unnecessary or they don’t want to go to the effort. Unfortunately, they only look foolish.

Recently a friend attended the annual gala opening of the Atlanta Symphony, which is a formal, black-tie affair with international guests that include ambassadors and philanthropists. On this night, they expected to see fabulous men & women looking dapper all dressed up but it was not to be. Alas, the scourge of fashion -- that casual Friday uniform of golf shirt and khakis -- ruled the night.  Her & her husband felt over dressed and totally disappointed by the lack of respect for the symphony. Would it have been so hard to find an affordable tuxedo at the last minute? I think not. If the invitation states that black-tie is optional, then, by all means, wear a tuxedo! The use of the word “optional” is just a polite way of reminding you what you should wear. Then again, even if it doesn’t state the attire, you should go to the extra effort of showing your young lady friend that you’re a man of taste and wear one for that romantic evening at the theater. You really don’t have to have an invitation as an excuse or a reason. Her affection should be enough of an incentive -- it will be worth it.
