Wedding Tuxedo
What's the best wedding tuxedo style for your frame? Take your cue from celebrities who know how to dress themselves well, and find the style that suits you best when shopping for formalwear.
Arnold Schwarzenegger style Wedding Tuxedo: Tall
and Broad
If your daily workouts have left you with broad shoulders, neck, arms, and
chest, you may not want extra padding to add additional bulk to your physique.
Consider the elegance of a shawl collar tuxedo. Its clean lines will give
you a slimmer silhouette. Choose dark colors for your wedding tuxedo and possibly a striped pair
of trousers to give you a lean look and draw attention away from your upper
body. If you also have a thick waist, go with a vest with a deep neckline
and avoid cummerbunds which will draw focus to your midsection.
Pierce Brosnan style Weddding Tuxedo: Tall and Slim
You're one of the fortunate few who can select any style of wedding tuxedo that's
appropriate to your wedding fashion and taste. The longer cut jackets with
four or five buttons or more will fit well, as would double-breasted coats.
If, however, you want to add some definition to your frame, ask your tailor to put extra padding in your jacket's shoulders and choose a contrasting cummerbund and pleated shirt.
Michael J. Fox style Wedding Tuxedo: Short and Slim
To avoid looking like you're swimming in your suit, make sure you pay special
attention to tailoring. A properly fitted suit is the key to style success
for men with shorter frames when choosing their wedding tuxedo. A classic two or three button jacket and pleated
pants in monochromatic colors work best.
Jason Alexander: Short and Stocky
Like your taller counterpart, a shawl collar wedding
tuxedo will give you a leaner
look. To offset a large waist, thicker shoulder pads will help give the
illusion of a broader chest and slimmer midsection. Select a long vest with
a deep "V" neckline and avoid pleated shirts and cummerbunds.
Select the wedding tuxedo that suits your style,
and you'll be on the road to looking like a superstar.
