Why isn’t a Tuxedo, just a suit?

If your left puzzled of what the differences between a Tux and suit are, then this is the right place

When choosing which to go for, the occasion is the deciding factor

Tuxedo’s are generally black with fewer buttons than on a suit, the idea being the fewer buttons, the smarter a Tux is, therefore the photo below the jacket has one fasting button only. 

A Tux will also have satin qualities, such as on the jacket lapels, buttons, pocket trims and sometimes a strip down the Tux trouser  

A Tux should always be worn with a white shirt and with a bow tie (feel free to add a little colour here) a white pocket square and the best polished black shoes  

If your heading to prom, a black tie or formal event, then the Tux is waiting at Smart Menswear for you

Have a lovely day,
