Anonymous asked: how can you rock a tuxedo shirt?? semi formal events included.

A.D. says: Nothing gets me more excited than the ruffles on a tuxedo shirt. (They take me back to high school orchestra. Anyone, anyone? OK, moving right along…) We all know that anyone can rock a tuxedo shirt in a tuxedo, but can you rock one without shiny shoes and a cumber bun? 

Like most of my answers on this blog, you can do anything! But here’s the trick: wearing a tuxedo shirt without a tuxedo is bucking tradition, so go ‘head, and wear those sneakers, roll up the sleeves, and don’t wash your hair.

Here are three ideas for rocking a tuxedo shirt:

Tuxedo Set 1 by qwear featuring dsquared

Jeans + Vest + Tuxedo Shirt + Ascot + Chuck Taylor’s (I’m thinking high brow/low brow w/ sass.)Tuxedo Set 2 by qwear featuring tux shirts

Khakis + Braces + Oxfords or Boots + Tuxedo shirt + undone bow tie.

Tuxedo Set 3 by qwear featuring theory blazer

Slacks + tuxedo shirt + blazer + wingtips + top-button swag + sleeves rolled up + bracelets.
