Nothing quite tops the tuxedo in regard to formality. As the quintessential black and white tie outfit, there’s a chance you’ll need to wear a tux at least once or twice in your life. As you’re pulling together your look, you’ll want to find pieces that are not only within your budget and the dress code but also fit your personal style.
What Is a Tuxedo Shirt?
A tuxedo shirt is a more elevated dress shirt, specifically meant to be worn with a tux. They have specific features like luxe fabrics, unique collar styles, and carefully placed studs, all of which complement the cut of a tuxedo. Tuxedo shirts shouldn't be worn with traditional suits or casual looks.
While it might seem like all tuxedo shirts are the same, there are actually a variety of styles that can help personalize wedding day attire.

What to Look for in a Tuxedo Shirt
Style and silhouette
When it comes to shopping for a tuxedo shirt it's important to find a style and silhouette that fits you perfectly and complements your tux. While it may seem as though all tuxedo shirts look alike, there are actually lots of different styles to choose from. Tuxedo shirts feature specific design elements that range from wing-top collars—such as the Big & Tall Ivory Wing Collar Non-Pleated Tuxedo Shirt— to mother-of-pearl studs and pleated bibs. The good news is that all tuxedo shirts are appropriate for a black-tie wedding, but they must always be worn with a tux.
Fit
No matter how nice a tuxedo shirt might be, it's not going to look as great if it doesn't fit right. Tuxedos are incredibly tailored outfits, and the tuxedo shirt is an essential part of the equation. Many online retailers, such as the ones mentioned above, offer extensive size guides to help you make your selection. It's also always a great idea to see a tailor before shopping for fitting advice. You can also get your shirt tailored after purchase so it perfectly fits your unique needs.
