About this video

Sacawa presents nine formal wedding outfit ideas, ranging from classic black tuxedos to white tie dress code, demonstrating how to style tuxedos and dinner jackets with various lapel styles, shirt configurations, and accessories. He explains the specific pieces and proportions needed for each look, from traditional black-tie options to more modern and statement-making alternatives like velvet and patterned dinner jackets.

Key takeaways

  • Sacawa recommends choosing lapel fabric to guide bow tie and cummerbund selections, and suggests a lower-cut U-shaped vest over a cummerbund for added elegance and formality
  • Sacawa argues that midnight navy blue is a sophisticated and photogenic alternative to black tuxedos, favored by Old Hollywood stars and modern figures like Daniel Craig
  • Sacawa advises that statement pieces like patterned or velvet dinner jackets require simple, classic accessories to keep the focus on the jacket, and emphasizes the specific construction details required for white tie dress code
