Choosing Right Style for Rental Tuxedo

Video Transcript

"Hi, on behalf of Expert Village I'm Garen Palmer and this is the Ritz Tuxedo Rental. As you come in preparing for your wedding or whatever event you're going to, you'll need to pick out a tuxedo style. Tough thing about a wedding is there are six, seven people in the wedding that are going to be all different sizes shapes. And finding tuxedos that look good on everyone is not really all that difficult, but there are probably a few things you need to be aware of. First difference in a tuxedo might be the number of buttons it has in the front. This is a two button; some will be one button. I have three buttons up here, but we even have four, five button fronts. A one and two button coat will fit anybody and fit them well. Three button coat, sometimes if they have a big stomach area. Three buttons, four buttons isn't always the best choice for them. So one or two buttons is a good way to go. Also, for real tall people, a tail coat isn't always the best way to go. It just seems to make them even longer, stretches them out. The bottom of the coat here might only come up to here and then you've got a gap between that and your pant; or just makes you look really tall and strung out when you wear a tail if you're say maybe six four or taller. A rounded lapel is not really good on a real heavy person. Most peopled its fine, but if he's real heavy it's not the most flattering. Another thing is that some coats are long; they might come clear down to the knee. A short person that is maybe five six, five seven, that's really going to make you look even shorter. That's great for maybe a person that's five eight, five nine, five ten or bigger or taller. But most tuxedos especially a one or two will fit anybody and no problems so if you're concerned about that go simple."
