”After trying 10 or so dresses…I saw an oversized Marc Jacobs suit buried quietly in the corner…In this suit, I felt like me today. In this suit, I felt the truth of who I am well up in my gut. And then wondering what I wanted to say tonight become very clear to me…I decided today I wanted to take the power back. Today I wear the pants.” -Lady Gaga

We love when a woman takes a simple tuxedo and turns up the edge factor! In this city styled shoot our bride wore her black shawl lapel tuxedo with a geometric detailed crop top, a gold body chain, and converse for a reception party look. Also pairing her look with a white tuxedo shirt and undone bow tie, for more ceremony covered style.

You can never go wrong with simplicity. We love how this woman paired her look with a nude tank top and fun strappy heels. This look can easily work for any business event or night out.

Black + White will always be a classic wedding look for couples. For this shoot we wanted to do a modern twist on that tradition. One of our gorgeous brides wore her shawl lapel women’s tuxedo with a white shirt, back studs + cufflinks, and a fun red lip color. While our other bride wore a more monochrome look: pairing her white shawl lapel tuxedo with a white shirt and white bow tie.

We love how Beatrice wore the female tuxedo as a “groomswoman” in her brother’s wedding. Pairing her look with a burgundy bow tie and matching burgundy shoes that perfectly compliment her burgundy dipped hair color and cool metal glasses.
Don't be afraid of color! Olivia wore our fun blush shawl lapel tuxedo for this colorful prom shoot! Pairing her look with the trendy over-sized bow tie and black studs + cufflinks. This look is perfectly feminine and strong with its color and design.
