Wearing a tuxedo is a great and wonderful experience that is done by most people a few times a year. Since this garment is only used a few times a year it makes sense that a persons tuxedo is in storage most of the time.
This piece was written to offer advice on how to properly store tuxedos. Upon finishing this article you will know more about tuxedo storage than you did before.
Firstly a person should examine the material and color before putting their tuxedo into storage. Look for discoloring stains or blemishes and make sure they are removed before putting the tuxedo away.
Make sure there aren't any rips or absent buttons before deciding to lock your tuxedo away. Examining the tuxedo for these defects will give you the ability to fix them before putting the tux away and having to deal with it a year from now.
Use a storage area that is tidy and away from any type of light that may discolor the fabric of your tux. This simple step could save you from having to buy a new tuxedo three years from now.
Storage must also be kept in a way that protects from insects like moths. This can be done by using cedar in, on, or around the tuxedo that needs protecting.
Lastly make sure to air out the tuxedo occasionally and check it for a proper fit. Bodies shrink and expand and sometimes clothes that fit six months ago will not fit today.
