Frequently asked questions

What is a tuxedo?

A tuxedo is a smart, formal suit typically worn in the evening for black-tie events, such as weddings, formal dinners, or fancy parties. It’s commonly known for its jacket, which usually has satin lapels, and matching trousers with a satin stripe down the sides. The outfit is completed with a white shirt, a black bow tie, and often a waistcoat.

It’s a go-to choice for evening occasions when you need to look your sharpest, particularly a black tuxedo.

What is the difference between a suit and tuxedo?

Tuxedos have a bit of satin shine- think satin lapels and bow ties- making them perfect for formal evening events. Suits skip the satin for a more flexible look that fits any occasion.

What shoes to wear with tuxedo

When wearing a tuxedo, the most appropriate shoes are black formal shoes, ideally made from patent leather for a polished, glossy finish. If you prefer a more understated look, highly polished black leather Oxford shoes are also suitable. The shoes should be sleek, simple, and elegant to complement the tuxedo's formal style. Avoid shoes with too much detailing, such as brogues, as they can detract from the refined appearance. At our suit shop in Leicester, the team can help you to find the best shoes to complement your look.
