A tuxedo is the ultimate choice of men's wear. While tuxedos are for fewer events now, knowing about the types of tuxedos available can be useful. Tuxedos are designed for several different types occasions.

A formal tuxedo includes a cummerbund, bow tie, and matching pants which provides a polished look that is certain to make a distinctive impression.

If you are attending a event before 4:00 p.m. a tuxedo designed for day wear is your appropriate choice. These tuxedos are usually dark gray, and often have stripes as well. Black tuxedos are not to be worn during the day with certain exceptions, as they are designed for formal evening events.

Daytime tuxedos also usually lack full tails, and are single breasted with shawl or peak lapels. If you have been invited to a formal daytime event and are unsure about your choice of tuxedo, contact a professional consultant help who can guide you.

For formal events after 4:00 p.m. your choice would be a black double breasted tuxedo with full tails. For White Tie events plan on wearing the most formal tuxedo possible. For Black Tie, lean towards a more casual single breasted tuxedo with no tails.

Whether you are buying or renting a tuxedo, it is best to lean towards the conservative direction. In events which are photographed for posterity, a classic tuxedo will make a lasting impression.
