The even better news is that Libin\u2019s, which specializes in Kalamazoo prom tuxedo rentals, has a huge variety to tailor to your night out, and the store\u2019s experts will show you the way.\u00a0Our tuxedo package pricing includes the entire outfit, including shoes.\u00a0 It\u2019s convenient and simple.\u00a0There are four keys to owning your appearance on prom night:\u00a0The appropriate size and fit: No matter how sharp the look, it falls apart if the fit isn\u2019t right. Big and baggy doesn\u2019t work with tuxedos and a slim-fit isn\u2019t for everyone. Take advantage of experts for measurements and their advice on what to wear.\u00a0Match your date: The night is too important to chance that your tuxedo and its accessories are a color shade off your prom date\u2019s dress. To get the perfect match, Libin\u2019s professionals recommend bringing in the dress or a swatch of the fabric.\u00a0Stay consistent and true to your style: Prom night should be relaxing and there should not be any anxiety about trying to pull off a different fashion. Your tuxedo should be a style that complements you.\u00a0When in doubt, a traditional look always wins the night: You simply can\u2019t go wrong with a classic black tuxedo.\u00a0The latest styles\u00a0There are tuxedo trends that give guys the ability to stand out from the crowd and make their mark with a different look. One emerging direction are paisley print jackets from Mark of Distinction tuxedos.\u00a0 The cobalt blue, apple red or granite designs will standout when pairing the coats with black pants. It\u2019s a trim and tapered style.\u00a0Another bold look is from Kenneth Cole, which is offering its burgundy tuxedo jacket for pairing with slim black tuxedo pants. The coat comes in an ultra slim fit and has a two-button closure and a front welt pocket if the wearer wants to add a pocket square those are available.\u00a0Accessories\u00a0Pairing the look of your tuxedo jacket and pants with the other elements of your prom night comes down to a mix of personal preference, natural design fit and what your date is wearing. This is another spot to use the consultation from a Libin\u2019s expert.\u00a0Shirts and ties: Wing collars and laydown collars are standard. If you\u2019re wearing a long tie, there\u2019s no decision to make as it is always worn with a lay down collar. A bow tie can accessorize either shirt style, and the decision comes down to your comfort level.\u00a0Vest and tie: The no-exception rule is to have this selection match your jacket and\/or your date\u2019s colors.\u00a0\u00a0Shoes: The traditional tuxedo shoe is the shiny black patent leather for any black, grey or navy tuxedo. A white tuxedo requires a white shoe. If you\u2019re going for a more modern look, a matte finish black shoes, or with navy and grey the tan matte finish shoe could be for you.\u00a0Make it easy on yourself\u00a0Take the advice and expertise of a Libin\u2019s professional when choosing a tuxedo package from the store that has been outfitting Kalamazoo prom-goers for decades\u00a0Visit us today to get the best selection before the prom season rush starts!\u00a0"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Blog","item":"https:\/\/www.libins.com\/blog\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Prom tuxedo trends, what not to do and how to find your style","item":"https:\/\/www.libins.com\/blog\/prom-tuxedo-trends-what-not-to-do-and-how-to-find-your-style\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
