Tuxedo Dysfunction
To enlighten y'all further on the multiple blasphemies
masquerading as a tuxedo these days:
This poor bastard is wearing almost every sin rolled into one abominable ensemble. THREE buttons (only supposed to have one if it's single-breasted), notch lapel like a "regular" business suit and a long tie. Hell, even his shirt doesn't fit properly. The lapel thing applies also to double-breasted tuxedos, although in those cases there is a lot more leeway with buttons.
This other outfit is a lot more correct. Notice the lapels are peaked and only has one button to discreetly show the cummerbund (or vest). We'll disregard the unfortunate colors of the tie/cummerbund.
I hope this settles everything.
