Spring & Summer Trends  
by Classic Tuxedo
You’ve spent a lot of time finding the perfect gowns for you and your bridesmaids, so when it comes to what your fiancé and the groomsmen will wear, don’t let the tuxedos be an afterthought. Bill Tzizik, CEO, Classic Tuxedo, says, “Shop together to find a style that’s appropriate to the formality of the event and for accessories that will complement, not distract from, the style and shade of your gown and those of the bridesmaids.
Spring and summer weddings have more tuxedo styles to select from too since a white or ivory dinner jacket with black trousers is also a favorite look for evening weddings. So take your time and shop around for the best look.”
This season’s top five tux trends for a stylish wedding:
What's In:
Your Favorite Designers
Your favorite designers from the world of fashion are now offering tuxedo collections. If you’re wearing a sleek, provocative gown, then a tuxedo from the new Calvin Klein collection would be a perfect complement. The 3-button notch tuxedo has all of the style and eye-catching appeal you expect from Calvin Klein. Joseph Abboud is another new tuxedo collection to check out. Abboud’s 2-button peak with pinstriped fabric is a hot look perfect for your spring wedding.
Pinstripes
Pinstripes are making a comeback and are a great alternative to a plain black tuxedo for spring or summer weddings. Pinstriped tuxedos can either be a black on black stripe for a subtle detail, a white chalk stripe on a black jacket for a classic look or a black pinstripe on a white jacket for a funky springtime alternative.
Non-pleated
No more pleats! Non-pleated trousers, similar to a suit pant but with a satin side stripe, have replaced pleated trousers for the clean silhouette they provide. Formal shirts have gone non-pleated too and continue to be the most popular choice for grooms wearing the contemporary Windsor or long tie.
Multi-button jackets
Tuxedos that have two or three button closures continue to be fashionable for spring. These multi-button styles are similar to styles found in the best menswear collections today and are a good fit for almost all body types. For spring weddings, a white 3-button tuxedo is a popular alternative to black. The Prado by After Six has a 3-button closure and looks great with white or black trousers. You choose!
Cool Accessories
Springtime is time to have fun with accessories! Blue skies and new bulbs are the inspiration for spring’s cool color palette. Vests are available in baby blue and light pink and coordinate beautifully with the popular pastel bridesmaids’ gowns.
When planning your wedding, don't rush the tux! Shop around; try on some of the latest spring styles from Calvin Klein or Joseph Abboud, perk up your tux with pinstripes or pair a white dinner jacket with some pastel accessories for a fresh, springtime look that'll make a beautiful impression.
