The more information you can supply us, the more accurate
the fit for your tuxedo rental. To get your measurements
go to any Tuxedo Rental Store or Men's Suit Store and they
will do complimentary measurements for you. This is the
most accurate you can get. If not possible all you need
is a tape measure and a friend. Please DO NOT take the sizes
off your clothes in the closet.
The following is what we need to know:
1. Weight: approximetly
2. Height: Stand against a wall (shoeless). Place
a flat ruler across top of head to wall. measure from that
point down to the floor.
The following guide will show you the appropriate length
for your jacket.
5’4” to 5’8” = Short
5’8½” to 5’11” = Regular
5’11½” to 6’3"= Long
6’3½” + Up = Extra Long
3. Chest: Bring tape measure around the widest
part of your chest, under your arms, completely around your
torso, with arms at your side note measurement. The average
man will have a 6 inch difference between chest size and
waist size (i.e. 44 chest will have 38 waist).
4. Over Arm: Bring tape over the top of bicep, back
and chest, not tight, note measurement.
5. Waist: Waist measurement should be taken where
you wear your pants, or at the hip bone (top). Pull tape
snugg. This will be different than your normal jeans. Tuxedo
pants have a 3" adjustment on each side.
6. Seat or Hips (Optional): For Men, measure around
the fullest part of his seat. For Women, measure around
the fullest part of her hips.
