What to wear to a black tie event?

by - April 24, 2021

 Am I the only one or do you also feel that we pay so much lesser attention to a man's wardrobe? Well I definitely feel so. Look at the apparel market and it's inundated with women's and kids' outfits. When was the last time you bought something formal/expensive for your husband/ brother/ father or any man in your life? With working from home the new norm, even trousers have taken a back seat.


My husband is no different and he has least interest in buying clothes. Partly because I am the 'stylist' of the family; partly because he's at the hospital for more than 15 hours a day wearing his scrub or Operation theatre costume (as people would say). So when a Zoom meeting was organised where it was made mandatory to dress up formally for men, I was on the hunt to find a new suit for him.

After scouring the internet, I came across allaboutsuit.com/ which has every possible formal wear for men at very attractive price points. From suits to blazers, pants to vest, wedding collection to prom collection, you say it, you will find it.

Wedding Suits: Tuxedos are so damn sexy! Are not they? I love everything about a tuxedo: whether it's white or black, unconventional powder blue or sage green, I love the luxe it oozes out.

These are some of my favourites.

Prom suit: Which teenager remembers running from store to store for the ideal prom suit? Well it's not a hassle anymore. You can find myriads of cute styles of prom suits here.

So ladies and 'gentlemen', which is your favourite form of formal wear? Let me know!

  3. Men in india don't get to wear tuxedo and blazers that often due to many reasons like weather, culture and many more. But I personally love wearing blazers at events.
