Tuxedos: How to Pick the Best Colors

Tuxedos: How to Pick the Best Colors

There’s so much emphasis on helping girls find the perfect prom dress that it’s important to offer some advice for picking the best tuxedo color! We at Savvi Prom in Raleigh know there are lots of options out there for you to choose from, so today we’re offering some advice on the subject.

 

 

Black is the classic standard for tuxedos, but black looks better with darker accessories.  While proms don’t abide by this rule, a black tuxedo looks best when paired with darker colors or patterns to create contrast with the white shirt.

 

If you’re wearing a light-colored suit, make certain that the accessories are also light. Stay away from colorful tuxedos that would clash and instead choose a gray tuxedo. As the saying goes, “Light colors set off dark colors; dark colors set off light ones.”

 

 

Gray tuxedos are the perfect choice for prom. When wearing a gray tuxedo, you want to complement your date's look, dazzle everyone in your color, and have fun! Proms don't have an extremely strict dress code as compared to black tie functions, so you can show off your creativity with a colorful tuxedo jacket! At Savvi Prom, we offer prom tuxedos of every color and size!

 

When all else fails, it’s important to keep color coordination in mind. Consider what colors your date is wearing and opt for complementary or matching shades. This will help ease your mind and make it a little simpler to choose colors. You can choose to match your vest and/or tie to your date’s dress, or you can add a fun pop of color that pairs nicely with her gown! If you need some color inspiration, shades of coral and lilac are great options for the spring seasons.
