Hey, I'm a highschool senior and while most guys just go to the closest store and pick out the "standard" prom tux (i.e:overcoat, vest, tie), I have a question about possible alternatives. I was at Menswearhouse.com looking at the pictures and a tux accompanied by a cummberbund and a bow tie was the most appealing to me, I like how classy it looks and I figured I would be standing out without having to wear a ridiulously colored suit. So I get to the actual store to rent and the worker swears that cummberbunds are not appropriate for prom, they aren't comfortable, it's hard to move with it (remind yourself, highschool dances have a lot of grinding involved), no one asks for them, etc. She didn't have any I could try on either. I still like how they look and I was hoping that any of you formal-experts could tell me what you think. Also, naturally I will want to lose the coat when I arrive at the dance, does the cummberbund really look that terrible without the coat? Thanks alot!
