Choosing the Different Cuts of Jackets

Fit of the Jacket

 
 

Over the years, tuxedo styles have changed. With those changes the way the jacket fits has also changed. Today more than ever, you must consider the way the fit will affect the way you feel in the tuxedo. Here are the three different types of fit available in todays tuxedos:

  1. Classic Fit -Classic is the term designated for the least trim of the three fits. It is also the most traditional and will look good on men of all sizes and shapes. This tuxedo typically comes with matching double pleated pants adding to the fuller look. While it will feel comfortable, it will tend to have a more boxy look.
  2. Modern Fit - Modern refers to an updated fit that is designated to look and feel more trim than the Classic fit garments. This fit shapes the outline of the body better without any pulling or stretching of the material. These styles will typically come with matching non-pleated pants that add to the slimmer look. This fit will look good on most physiques and is very popular for weddings at this time.
  3. Slim Fit - Slim is just what it says. This fit is an even trimmer look than the Modern fit styles. This is a very high fashion look and is not meant to be worn by everyone. The average to athletic physique will look great in this style and it is not available in the larger sizes. This style comes with matching pleated skinny fit pants. They are more form fitting and are worn lower on the waist. This fit is available for the person who is use to wearing their clothes very tight to their bodies.
When choosing the fit for your wedding party, be sure and take into consideration the body style of all of the men in your party. It is even ok to mix the fit if the groomsmen are comfortable in the modern fit and the fathers might be more comfortable in a classic fit. A company that specializes in tuxedo rental will be able to help you choose the best fit for your occasion.

There is a perception that wearing a suit for a wedding makes the event less formal.
