Where to Find a Dark Blue Tuxedo

By Danny Wong , last updated July 6, 2011

Dark blue tuxedos are probably one of the most elegant things a man could wear. Some men even prefer dark blue tuxedos to tired black tuxedos which are all too common. If you're looking to upgrade your style, here are some places where you can find a dark blue tuxedo to look classy and stylish.

Common Suit and Tuxedo Shops

There are plenty of suit and tuxedo shops you can turn to where you can find a nice dark blue tuxedo. For example, there are stores like Men’s Wearhouse where you can find an affordable ready-made dark blue tuxedo, or even JoS A. Banks. If you find another, smaller shop selling suits, it is also very likely that they will sell tuxedos too. Also, since dark blue is a favorite color amongst many men who wear tuxedos, getting a dark blue tuxedo in a suit shop won't be hard at all. When finding a dark blue tuxedo in these places though, beware that you will probably need alterations on the tuxedos which can increase the final price of the product by up to $150, so don't get fooled by any special sales where a tuxedo seems to be cheap. In fact, when buying a dark blue tuxedo, price should not be an option since you should make a solid investment out of your purchase and buy something that will look good, feel good, and last a lifetime, if not two.

Online Retailers

You can also find dark blue tuxedos with online retailers like Amazon and Indochino where you will find rock bottom prices all the time since online shops and businesses generally offer clothing at a much cheaper price than you could find in stores, anywhere. At Amazon, you can browse a huge selection of dark blue tuxedos and find ones in your size, then pick according to your style preferences and needs. At Indochino, you can pick their standard dark blue tuxedo and get it custom sized for you. With any online retailer, you'll have your dark blue tuxedo shipped straight to you door, so you never have to leave the house to do your shopping.

Tailor Shops

Another place where you may also find dark blue tuxedos is with custom tailor shops, where you select a dark blue tuxedo pattern and fabric that suits you, select all the style preferences you want, and then they stitch a new dark blue tuxedo for you from scratch. Note, that some of these tuxedos can be very expensive if you're using local tailors to do the job and are asking for the finest fabrics available. To lower costs, you can have the tuxedo stitched overseas, lowering labor costs, although costs for raw materials may be about the same price.

Department Stores and Fashion Boutiques

You may also find dark blue tuxedos available at department stores like Barneys and Macys. Fashion boutiques like Zegna will also have a nice selection of dark blue tuxedos if you're looking for something that's a bit more luxurious, made with the finest materials and craftsmanship. This could be the most expensive option of all, but could leave you looking and feeling your best.
