Do you really need to try on again at your second fitting?

 We have had customers ask us if it is really necessary to try on their tuxedo even when they were measured prior to it arriving in our store. In short, yes it is still extremely important to try it on and there are a couple of reasons why.


Firstly, measurements are not exact. Measurements give a good idea of the sizing and most of the time they're good but everyone has a different body type and that can change how some garments will fit on certain people. We will take the time to have you try on garments if you are in between sizes, but we do not always have the exact garments in store. If you are unable to get measured at our store, take the time to go to a reputable tuxedo shop or tailor. Also make sure to send us your correct height and weight because it helps to perfect your fit. This brings me to my next point.

Everything is going to fit differently than what you're used to. The tuxedo coats come in different fits and most of our customers have never worn a tuxedo coat before. When you try on your tuxedo, we explain how it is supposed to fit you and then make sure that you are also comfortable with the fit as well. We want you to look good but we also want to accommodate for your comfort.

Lastly, if you need replacement garments we need time to get them ordered and into the store. We want everyone who rents from us to look good in what they are wearing, so we do not want anyone going to any wedding or event in ill-fitting garments. That's why you should always come to try on your tuxedo on your scheduled pick up date so that we have time to get replacements if necessary.


Always make the time to try on your tuxedo because the sooner you try it on the easier your fitting will be.
