Tuxedos for St Kilda clients
If you attend black-tie events regularly, owning a tuxedo cut for you is often more practical than relying on hire.
Black tie leaves little room for compromise. A tailored tuxedo gives you clean lines, the right trouser length and a jacket that sits properly all evening.
Linen and lightweight wool are popular choices for St Kilda weddings and long summer evenings.
From the bay, Richmond is an easy trip for a first fitting, and reorders are simple once your measurements are saved.
Our Richmond showroom on 214 Bridge Road is roughly 6 km from St Kilda.
We also see plenty of clients from nearby Windsor, Elwood and Prahran.
St Kilda sits in the City of Port Phillip area, postcode 3182.
We don't hand your garment over until you're happy with the fit. Any adjustments are made by our in-house tailor.

Tuxedos questions
Which lapel should I choose?
Shawl and peak lapels are the classic black-tie choices; a notch lapel is more relaxed. We will show you how each looks on you.

Yes. Midnight navy and black are both traditional, and we can show you other cloths too.
Do you make tuxedo shirts?
Yes. Dress shirts are made to your measurements as well.
Can the groom wear a tuxedo and groomsmen wear suits?
Yes. We can coordinate cloths and details so the group looks considered.
What if the fit is not right at the second fitting?
We do not hand your garment over until you are happy with the fit. Our in-house tailor makes the adjustments.

Yes. Measurements, patterns and alteration notes are kept on file, which makes repeat orders faster and usually removes the need for multiple fittings.
