Can I wear tie with tuxedo shirt?
When do gentlemen wear their bow tie under a pinpoint collared shirt’s collar?
Personally, I prefer detachable collar shirts because they just look and feel so grand.
Must the tuxedo shirt always be white? I see that Brooks Brothers offers light pinks and blues–would they be acceptable with a midnight navy or black tux?
There are tuxedo shirts out there which are closed by buttons, and have an extra placket over them to hold the studs, which are purely decorative. I prefer these to the shirts with no buttons, and are closed by the studs themselves so that they are functional. More than once with this second style of shirt, one or more studs have fallen out, letting the shirt fall open. Very embarrassing. Whenever possible, get the first style of shirt.
Can I wear a plissé front, a bow tie, a black pant and a black shoe? Is it appropriate? Please help! Thanking you in anticipation.
Great content, Brian. You missed out the marcella front shirt which does not have the pleating effect of the plissé front. Second point, in spite of the provision to take studs, my separate shirt studs don't fit very well with the existing shirt buttons still in place on my Turnbull & Asser dress shirt. Is it normal to remove the existing buttons in order to fit shirt studs?
what type of shirt would you recommend wearing white a white tuxedo jacket black peak lapels. i also plan on wearing a waist covering im stuck between the bib or pleated shirt ?
Great content man. This helped me pick my shirt for the black tie event I was going to.
Why is the wing collar not appropriate for dinner. Looks funny or too formal? Thanks.
This was wonderfully useful! Very concise, good and relevant high quality b-roll. Thanks!
Hello,
I bought a white tux for my wedding, could you please suggest the type of shirt that should I buy ? My tux jacket is white with wide peak lapel.
Thanks
Thank you for the 2-shirt tip.
Good job
Fantastic and Very Informative Quality Video Really.
As tradition goes I really think the first shirt is the best. Black tie should be pretty formal.
I would like to add that a wing collar shirt only goes with a seamless / sized bow tie. If you wear an adjustable bow tie with a wing collar the clasp will be visible. Although I have a tailored bow tie and could go with a wing collar I still prefer turn down collars. There is also a shirt style with textured fabric and a fly front which is what I prefer. I've got two of them. One is tailored and the other one is Turnbull & Assers Casino Royale shirt.
Thank you!!
In the US is the only place where wing colar is worn with black tie. Its supposed to be for strictly white tie. Idk how we in the states decided that, but its pretty interesting but makes sense because white tie doesn't really exist here.
Is it acceptable to wear a pique bib front shirt with a turn down collar? I prefer that to a pleated front. Or, is that type of shirt usually for a wing collar?
I generally recommend against the wing collar option. First, it makes you look like a waiter. Second, it's damned near impossible to find a fitted black bow tie these days, and you should never wear an adjustable tie with a wing collar. The only sources I've found in the last few years are in the UK.
Would it be advisable to wear a double-breasted jacket with a wing collar shirt?
Which type of tuxedo shirt is your favorite, Brian?
Thank you Brian.
I have a very weird question : is it OK to wear like a wing collar and a cravat with a tuxedo or is that too old timey?
What about a puffy shirt
What about the waffle weave bib front shirt? What is this one best worn with?
0:19 I cannot take advice from you seriously when almost all your suits seem to have the dreaded shoulder divot. It's glaring, I'm not sure how you/an experienced tailor have not corrected this. The drape does not look seamless and the divots are really difficult to ignore.
