The decision of which tuxedo shirt and groomsmen tuxedo shirts are proper for your needs should be determined by which shirts are appropriate for the specific style of tuxedoyou and your groomsmen will be donning at your event. Below is an overview of the most popular collar styles and when/how to wear them:
Wing Collar
This is the traditional stand up collar you’re used to seeing in formal wear. It looks great with a standard necktie, an ascot style and of course a bow tie. Just remember with the bow tie to tuck those wings behind the tie.
The wing collar is not in the least bit trendy so you’ll always be in style.
If you are looking for something that will not be mistaken for a more casual look, then a wing tip tuxedo shirt is for you. For a “white tie” event, which means tails, a wing-tip shirt is your only choice!
Turndown (Laydown) Collar
This collar is just like the one on your everyday dress shirt. While it’s not considered trendy, it’s particularly popular right now. Since this type of collar is most similar to a normal shirt’s collar, thus many people feel comfortable in it. It works best with a tie and vest, but a bow tie can be worn as well. Most lay-down collared shirts have pleated fronts.
Banded (Mandarin) Collar
This is like the wing collar – just without the wings. This band-style collar will give your formal wear a very updated and contemporary look. This cut of shirt is popular with younger guys who are not in love with the idea of wearing a tie and would like to display some kind of individuality while wearing their tux. This collar-less shirt provides that opportunity. Since these shirts usually do not have French cuffs, you can also skip the cuff links. However, decorative button covers will be needed to complete the look.
The right tuxedo shirt can go a long way. Whether your goal is to look as formal as possible, or give off as much personality as possible, the collar goes a long way in projecting that. Follow these simple tips and achieve the look that’s perfect for you!
