5 Types of Tuxedo Shirts You Might Not Have Known Existed
About this video
Sacawa presents five styles of tuxedo shirts, detailing the distinguishing characteristics, formality level, and recommended tuxedo pairings for each. He covers wing collar, self-textured, plissé front, pleated front, and plain front shirts, and recommends having two shirts available on wedding day to stay fresh throughout the event.
Key takeaways
- Sacawa argues wing collar shirts are the most formal option and should be paired with a three-piece peak lapel tuxedo, while self-textured shirts are versatile and work with multiple tuxedo styles.
- Sacawa recommends matching pleat width to body frame and suggests pleated front shirts pair well with dinner jackets in interesting colors or textures, including velvet.
- Sacawa advises having two shirts on wedding day—a formal option for early events and a plain front shirt for later in the evening to maintain freshness and protect against spills and stains.
