SuitSupply tuxedo package — Suitsupply

The holidays are here, which means that it is time for the party invitations to begin rolling in over and over. If you are like us, you get invitations to everything from ugly Christmas sweater parties to black tie events. Of course, you know how to buy an ugly Christmas sweater; that is pretty easy; go to the closet and get the one your grandmother got you a few years ago. But what about the black tie event? What about the formal parties that require you to go a little further? Lucky for you, Suitsupply has made shopping for your tuxedo this season easy with their new tuxedo package for only $999.

More than just a tuxedo

We know what you are thinking: Why not just rent the thing? That answer is pretty simple: It will cost a lot less and look a heck of a lot worse, only to face the same problem next year. The truth is, every man should own his own tuxedo, and Suitsupply made that about as easy as it could possibly be with their new package that includes everything you need to get out the door.

A tuxedo: Choose classic black or navy to create your ideal black-tie look.
Tuxedo shirt: Choose from three classic Egyptian cotton styles: plain hidden placket, piqué, or pleated bib-front.
Shoes: Step into patent leather Oxford lace-ups or add a modern twist with black velvet tuxedo slip-ons.
Bow tie: Choose between self-tied or pre-tied silk.
Cufflinks: Personalize your look with a choice of cufflinks.
Suspenders: Add some hidden details when you pick your suspenders.

Does that seem a little boring? Want to jazz it up? We get it, us too. Opt for a velvet dinner jacket instead. Want to add a waistcoat to the ensemble? No worries, $100 and it belongs to you.

Legendary designer has a project coming up you may not know about

Legendary designer, Tom Ford, is writing and directing a film adapting the Anne Rice novel, Cry to Heaven

Accessories, Formal Wear, Tie

Tom Ford is a name that every fashionisto knows well. He is the top of the top when you talk about famous suit makers. He began his career changing the landscape of multiple brands, including Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent, before launching his own self-named brand of his own in 2005. The brand has remained a mainstay in the industry for the last 20 years, including the acquisition of Estée Lauder in 2022 for an estimated $2.8 billion. For the movie buffs in the room, you also likely know about Tom Ford because he became the exclusive tailor and suitmaker for Daniel Craig's James Bond for Quantum of Solace in 2008. He carried that gig all the way through the series and defined men's style for two decades.

Now, for the real cinephiles in the room, you may also know that Tom Ford himself is a movie buff and entered the industry as a writer and a director in 2009 by directing A Single Man with Colin Firth and Julianne Moore. Then again in 2016 with Nocturnal Animals with Amy Adams, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Michael Shannon. Of course, the wardrobe was stellar in both, and we will get a chance to see his talents onscreen again this fall with a new Anne Rice adaptation, Cry to Heaven.

The ‘Dad Reset’ is on the horizon: Megan Collins leads the charge

Men are taking ownership over what they wear and the founder of Style Girlfriend is here to help

Person, Sitting, Adult

One of the most frustrating moments in any man's style journey is when your wardrobe starts to feel stale. No matter what you do, you feel like everything you put on is old, boring, or tired. You try to switch it up. You pair it differently. It just lost its luster. The truth is, it happens to all of us. But the people who struggle with it the most are middle-aged men. With a specific focus on dads. Middle-aged men are too young to resign themselves to not caring about their look anymore. They are too old to dive into the trends with the changing of the fashion winds. So many of them throw in the towel. Add to that overwhelming feeling being a busy father, and there is just no way to spend the time and energy on rebuilding a wardrobe. That is where Megan Collins comes in. Her business, Style Girlfriend, takes men and restores their confidence from the ground up with new, elevated, and evolved stylistic choices.

When you have one outfit you love, you wear it. When you wear it, you notice how much better you feel. Then, you want another outfit that gives you that same feeling. That's how confidence builds. Not all at once, but one good decision at a time. - Megan Collins, Founder, Style Girlfriend

Shinola’s new blacked-out Mackinac Night Race revives a rare sailing complication

The Detroit brand's new limited edition puts a one-of-a-kind forged carbon dial on a yacht timer — the countdown built for sailboat starts.

Wristwatch, Arm, Rope

Shinola has made watches about Detroit, about the Apollo program, and about a lake monster. Its newest one is about a sailboat race, and damn, is it good-looking.

The Detroit-based brand is launching the Mackinac Night Race, a limited edition built around the yacht timer — the countdown complication used to time the start of a sailing race, aka one of watchmaking's more specialized tricks. The name nods to the Great Lakes maritime history the watch draws on (so not technically an official race tie-in).
