Are you a girl or a guy? Argentine or American Tango?
Lady: Contrasting colors do well in tango. Red is the most popular choise. Combination of red and black is good. Fabric should be stretchy, like swimsuit fabric, so that you can move freely with your dress still following your body lines. I recommend a dress with a long skirt (or a two-piece that looks like a dress). Skirt needs to be wide but not too poofy, (or noone will ever see your legs move) for American or International Tango. You can get away or even do well with narrow slitted skirt in Argentine Tango, if the fabrich is slinky and stretchy. Look at this page - maybe you'll find some inspirational designs in their Fasion department. http://www.dancesport.uk.com/
If you're a guy it is really pretty simple: black shirt, black pants and a tie exactly matching your partner's dress in color. No, don't wear a white shirt with a vest - you'll look like a waiter. Note that tuxedo wich is not desinged for dancing will be BAD - the shoulders will go up to your ears as soon as you take the dance hold.

Try some of the websites below. I tried to pick sites where the prices aren't extreme.
You can use the Flamingo styles for tango also.
At Discount Dance you'll have to look through the styles. They have a Falmingo Style and a dress that has a fringe bottom, either would work for tango.
At Dance Fashions look in the latin styles.
If you are doing Argentine Tango then you want something sexy.

More great fashion advice from Snowflake1234.
I've been dancing Argentine Tango off and on for Six Months, American Ballroom Tango for Five. I even mix them up at times when I'm feeling whimsical. My tango partner has only been dancing Tango for five or six weeks (both kinds).
You'd think the guys on campus would catch on when there are three gals at ballroom club for every guy in attendance that more would come... but until they do some of us who are more confident in our skills are gonna learn to lead.
I'm just not going to offer any fashion advice after reading Snowflakes answer. Good job, Snowflake.

In the supposition that you are a woman, I would recommend a loose fitting yet elegant dress or skirt & blouse. Satin or a satiny material would be ideal, because it flows beautifully.
For the man: Pinstriped suit with wide lapels and a wide rimmed hat (the gangster look).
