Park Avenues With A "Tux"

9413 Views 68 Replies 33 Participants Last post by  Taliesin
Hello all,

So in a few months I'm going to be a groomsman in my friend's wedding. He has chosen a black "tux" with a black 2B notch-lapel jacket, black vest, and black necktie - not exactly my cup of tea, but fortunately it's not my wedding either.

I'm not going to bother trying to change his mind on what he picked out, but I would prefer to avoid wearing the square-toed patent leather shoes he selected as well (just can't stand the square-toed look). I recently bought a pair of Park Avenues in black - I'd much prefer to wear those, but would they be appropriate for such an outfit? (would they be formal enough?)

Thank you for you response!

^Even better advice. Most people won't notice, and fewer still will care.
+1. His bride might notice, but it's not that big a deal even if she does. And you could always tell a white lie that the store forgot to include them in your bag or that they didn't fit or something like that.
