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 😆
