You would have seen many women in award shows and other events like prom, bands and choirs. You’ll see a lot of men dressed in swanky tuxedos that look very much alike those of women’s tuxedo. There are several elements that distinguish one tuxedo from another. There are different types of lapels, jackets, cuffs, collars, neckwear and accessories. All these types convey a slightly different message about the tuxedo that’s being worn.
Different styles of jackets of tuxedo include:
• Full dress or tails or tailcoat: This is worn at formal evening weddings. Front of the style jacket is cropped, with two tails in the back and a two- to six-button front.
• Cutaway or morning coat: Cutaway coat is worn at formal daytime weddings, the coat is short in the front, long in the back.
Different types of lapels include:
• Notched lapel: This is not a formal lapel style.
• Shawl collar: This is a smooth lapel with no notch and rounded lapel.
• Peaked lapel: This V-shaped lapel points up and out just below the collar line.
There is not only a physical difference between the types, but also difference in formality that will make your next event considerable.
