How Do You Buy A Tuxedo Vest?
In America, many men tend to choose vests over cummerbunds when wearing tuxedos. A vest works well with a single- or double-breasted suit and looks great even with the jacket off. You should be able to buy a formal vest anywhere that tuxedos are rented or sold. Coordinate your vest with the rest of your bridal party if you will be wearing this tux for a wedding. The vest should clearly distinguish the groom from the groomsmen, but overall, the dress of the entire wedding party should match. Pick a gray vest for morning or daytime events. Usually the tuxedo will also be gray for these types of events. Avoid bright colors or patterns for formal events. If the event is more lighthearted, you can find tuxedo vests with patterns and images. This general rule applies to cummerbunds and ties as well. Buy a vest with a pique collar for formal evening events. Usually this style of vest should only be worn in white or black. You can also buy a brocade or colored version for less-formal events. C
