A suit is more versatile and works for semi-formal to formal proms, available in a much wider range of colors and can be dressed up or down with accessories. If your prom&#8217;s dress code says &#8220;black-tie,&#8221; go tuxedo; if it says &#8220;formal&#8221; or &#8220;semi-formal,&#8221; a well-fitted suit is usually the better, more flexible choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Prom planning tends to focus heavily on dresses, but the other half of most prom nights is figuring out what to wear as a suit or tuxedo \u2014 and getting it right matters just as much for feeling confident on the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_85
