ey guys.

im debating as to which i want either:

a tuxedo, with pin stripe.



or just the classic black tuxedo.



now im aware that trends do always change.
has the pinstripe tux been around for a while, for it to be 'classic',
or is it just a trend that comes and goes?

a classic black tuxedo will remain what it is: classic.

oooh i don't mind the pinstripe......
BUT i must agree with other posters, the black is more 'classic' than the pinstripe.
The pinstripe is very.. sharp.. though... <3 the white tie.

if you go pin stripe however make sure you get a really good one that will set you apart from every single other kid wearing one. At my school nearly everyone is wearing pin stripe and so far they all look shit, but that one pictured, is seriously hot

but id still go a classic tux

How much would one of these set you back?

not sure.
my last suit cost $700. i got it for $500 though. didnt have any lining in the pants though :S

i think around $5-600.

really depends on the brand, and the materials.

hey guys, im deciding opt out of the 'tuxedo tail', and the satin lines down the side of the pants.

so it'll just be like a normal suit, except tuxedo 'style', /w notched silk lapels & buttons, 2 button, silver silk lining in suit, two vents, umm full lining in pants.

and of course, as unanimously voted upon, the classic black.
plz help me find photos though,
i need an idea.

The model in the pinstripe looks hot so the question is... how do you stand up against him?

If you're looking to re-wear it, go classic even though its boring. Dress it up with tie and shoes etc. The tux isnt the only thing you know :)
