Tuxedo Styles |
|
Double-breasted - This type of tuxedo is perfect for men that are short and stout. The double-breasted tuxedo can easily hide girth while looking incredible. |
High Vest – Similar to a high-button coat, the high vest is a good option for larger men or those with large torsos. Muted colors are very popular and can be worn for both formal and informal weddings. |
Single-breasted (one or two-button) - With this style of tuxedo, you will achive a wonderful, classic look that is perfect for all body types, If the groom is taller, then he might prefer the two-button option while shorter men would choose the one-button. These choices help balance out proportion, creating the best look for the physique. |
Low Vest – This option is good on all body types but if not worn correctly, it can appear more as a belly sling than a vest. |
Single-breasted (three or four-button) - Similar to the other single-breasted style, this tuxedo style has a clean, unbroken line. Because of this, it is popular and looks excellent on tall men or those on the slender side. However, if the groom were larger and rounded, this syle should be avoided. |
Peaked Lapel – If the groom were short, this would be a good choice. The body will appear longer and leaner, drawing the person to look up. |
Cutaway - The cutaway tuxedo is what is often referred to as a "traditional morning coat". It has swallowtail lines and works well with any body type. In fact, shorter men often lean toward this style in that it helps to create a taller look. |
Shawl Collar – This is a good choice but can be somewhat tricky. Since the color width varies, you need to be sure you work with the right size for the body type. For instance, if the groom were already broad, then he would not want to choose a narrow collar in that it would make him appear even larger. |
