Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are these accessories correct for true black tie and white tie?
Yes. Materials, shapes, and finishes follow traditional standards so they pair with classic tuxedos and full dress tailcoats. For an overview, see the black tie guide.
-
Which bow tie shape should I pick for evening wear?
Butterfly is balanced, batwing is slim and minimal, and diamond point adds subtle interest. If you need help, start with how to pull off a bow tie and the bow ties definitive guide.
-
Do I need a cummerbund or a waistcoat with a tuxedo?
Pick one waist covering to conceal the trouser waistband. White tie requires a white piqué waistcoat. The black tie guide explains when each option is appropriate.
-
How should I choose studs and cufflinks for formal shirts?
Keep them understated and coordinated. Black onyx or mother of pearl with matching metal tones is a timeless choice. See the shirt studs guide.
-
Can I wear a watch with black tie?
Yes. A slim dress watch on a black leather strap is appropriate. Review how to pick a dress watch for evening wear and our dress watch guide.
-
How do I place a boutonniere correctly?
Position it through the lapel buttonhole and secure it so it sits upright without crushing the petals. Follow our step-by-step boutonniere tutorial.
-
Is renting a tuxedo a good idea for a one-time event?
Rentals can be convenient but often fit poorly and use lower grade materials. Read how bad are rental tuxedos before you decide.
-
What etiquette should I keep in mind for concerts and opera nights?
Arrive on time, silence devices, and avoid strong fragrances. For a full checklist, see etiquette when attending a performance.
