Now Trending: Tuxedo Styling

Author Editor - 3 minute read
Tuxedos are making their way out of the ballroom and onto the catwalks. Back in full swing, the tuxedo styling trend gives classic tailoring a modern, fashion-forward edge. From androgynous tailoring to chic monochrome palettes, this look is all about confidence, sleek lines and a playful twist on formal wear. Let us talk you through how to embody this style trend, effortlessly…
 
 

WHY IS TUXEDO STYLE TRENDING?

 
The tuxedo styling trend is all about versatility and sophistication, blending feminine flair with traditionally masculine cuts. You may have seen celebrities stepping out in and catwalks showcasing tux-inspired pieces that offer a chic alternative to evening dresses and smart-casual wear. The appeal lies in its timeless elegance – strong silhouettes, structured tailoring and a monochrome palette that flatters all – all of which will never go out of style. Whether you’re dressing for a dinner, date, business meeting or a night out, tuxedo styling lets you strike the perfect balance between bold and beautiful.
 
 
 

THE TUXEDO BLAZER

 
 
A classic tuxedo blazer is the ultimate power piece, and our Whisper Double Breasted Blazer nails the look. This double-breasted style nods to traditional tuxedo jackets, originally designed for men’s evening wear, whilst adding a chic-meets-contemporary twist. The structured fit and contrasting lapels are key elements of the tuxedo trend, making it a trendy yet professional option. Whether paired with tailored trousers for a formal setting or styled with a mini skirt for evenings out, this sharp blazer is a wardrobe must-have.
 
 
 

MODERNISING THE MINI DRESS

 
 
 
One of the most exciting developments in tuxedo styling is the reimagining of classic menswear into striking mini dresses. The sleek, strapless nature of our Gemma Carey Satin Bandeau Mini Dress teamed with faux button detailing and sharp tailoring brings a flirty, yet refined, take on tuxedo chic. This dress is perfect for evening events where you want to make a statement, combining the structure and sophistication of tuxedo design with a playful silhouette and elegant satin trims, making it a standout in the tuxedo trend. Wear with tights and heels for soirees and nights out alike.
 
 
 
 

SEQUINS & TAILORING COMBINED

 
 
For those who want to take the tuxedo trend to the next level, adding some sparkle never hurts! Our Xia Ponte Sequin Jersey Blazer Mini Dress partners the suave style of a tuxedo blazer with the showstopping shine of a sequin dress. Perfect for making an impact at any special occasion, this dress offers the best of both worlds. The mix of formal structure and eye-catching embellishments shows just how versatile and bold tuxedo styling can be, making this a favourite dress for party season.
 
 
 
 

SHARP & SOPHISTICATED SHIRTING

 
 
A tuxedo-inspired shirt is a staple for those who appreciate sleek and polished styling with a modern twist. Our Chiara Drape Satin Contrast Long Sleeve Shirt takes inspiration from the classic tux, but adds a contemporary edge with its satin contrast in monochrome tones. Its sharp collar and concealed button-through fastening makes it an ideal choice for the office or formal events, whilst its subtle semi-sheer finish and relaxed fit also make it an androgynous weekend shirt style. This piece perfectly embodies the tuxedo trend, highlighting the elegance and precision of menswear tailoring whilst still feeling fresh and fashion-forward.
