The Tuxedo

A Women’s Tuxedo Suit With a Satin Shawl Lapel

A women’s tuxedo suit is the choice for a formal evening when a dress is not, and the tuxedos most women find are rentals or stretch sets cut for a size chart. A tuxedo depends on clean lines, a lapel that lies flat and trousers that fall straight to the shoe, and none of that survives an inexact fit.

This feminine tuxedo for women has a wide shawl lapel faced in silk satin, two covered buttons, roped shoulders and trousers with a satin stripe down each leg, in a Super 140s worsted wool. It is made to your measurements, and you wear a free cotton test suit at home before the wool is cut.

Free Test Suit

A Satin Stripe Shows Every Fault in the Trousers

The stripe down the outseam is a straight line on a moving body, so it reveals what a plain trouser hides: a hip that is fuller at the back than the front twists the stripe forward, and a small seat leaves folds that bend it. On the jacket, roped shoulders and a shawl lapel need an accurate bust and shoulder fit. These are the points we correct on the test suit, keeping the buttons close enough that the front stays closed when you dance or sit.

If a correction would alter the look, such as an extra dart beside the shawl lapel, we explain the trade-off and you choose between an exact fit and the exact style in the photos.

1
Choose the color and lining
Pick the tuxedo cloth and lining in the selector, then your fit and measurements, with the trouser length for your evening shoes.
2
The cotton tuxedo is made
Jacket and trousers are cut in cotton to your measurements in 3 to 4 weeks and reach you 5 to 10 days after they ship.
3
Check the line from the side
A satin stripe shows whether the trousers hang straight: stand sideways to a mirror and look for a stripe that runs plumb from hip to hem. Then button the jacket and check that the shawl lapel lies flat over the bust.
4
The tuxedo is cut
Your corrections go into the pattern; the tuxedo takes 3 to 4 weeks to make and arrives 5 to 10 days after dispatch. The cotton tuxedo is yours to keep.

Tuxedo or Suit

What Makes a Female Tuxedo Different From a Suit

Woman in a women's white tuxedo suit with a shawl lapel jacket and black satin stripe trousers, front view

Satin facingsThe lapel is faced in silk satin; a suit lapel is the same cloth as the jacket.
Satin stripeA half-inch satin stripe runs down the outer seam of each trouser leg.
Covered buttonsButtons are covered in fabric rather than horn or plastic.
No belt loopsBuckle side adjusters set the waist, so nothing breaks the line under the jacket.
Shawl lapelOne continuous curve from collar to button, the softest and most formal of the tuxedo lapels.

Whether you search for a female tux or a tuxedo set in female sizing, the details above are what make it formal. Cheap tuxedo sets usually give out in two ways, in our experience: the cloth and satin lose their color and sheen, and the front loses its shape because nothing is built into it. A canvas front and a fine worsted are what keep this one looking right for years of formal events.

The Details

The Shawl Lapel, the Jacket and the Back

The jacket

Two covered buttons, flap hip pockets and the shawl lapel running in one curve from collar to button.

The shawl lapel

Faced in silk satin, the lapel has no notch or peak, which is what makes it a shawl.

Back

The back of the jacket and the straight line of the trousers.

Women in tuxedo suits are often photographed from the side and back at events, which is why the back view matters: the jacket should lie smooth below the collar and the trousers should fall without folds.

Prom and formalsA women’s tuxedo suit for prom in white or black, as a tailored alternative to a gown. Among women’s prom suits it is the most formal, a prom tuxedo for females who want satin and structure, and the jacket alone makes a prom jacket for ladies wearing a dress.
WeddingsA female tuxedo for wedding guests, or for the bride, in white.
Galas and awardsBlack or navy with a silk camisole: a women’s tailored tuxedo suit for a formal event.
Winter eventsThe same tuxedo with a fine knit turtleneck under the jacket.

Many women tuxedo outfit ideas start with the jacket alone over a dress. For peak lapels and menswear details, see our women’s bespoke tuxedo; for a velvet evening jacket, our women’s velvet tuxedo jacket.

Questions & Answers

Questions About the Women’s Tuxedo Suit

Q. Is a women’s tuxedo a good choice for prom?
A. Yes. A tailored tuxedo is a sharp alternative to a gown, easier to move and dance in, and it can be worn again to weddings and formal dinners. Ready-made prom tuxedos are cut from men’s or generic patterns; this one is cut to your measurements.
Q. How far ahead should I order for prom?
A. Count back from the date. The cotton test suit takes 3 to 4 weeks to make and arrives 5 to 10 days after dispatch; once you approve it, the tuxedo takes another 3 to 4 weeks and arrives 5 to 10 days after it ships. Leave a few extra days for trying the test suit and sending your notes.
Q. What is a shawl lapel?
A. A lapel cut in one smooth curve from the back of the collar to the button, with no notch or peak. It is the most formal tuxedo lapel and the softest looking, which suits a woman’s neckline well.
Q. Is the lapel real silk satin?
A. Yes. The shawl lapel is faced in silk satin, and the trouser stripe is satin too.
Q. What color is the satin stripe, and can I change it?
A. Black, as in the photos. For another color, add a note in the comment box of the measurement form, or send us an email quoting your order number.
Q. Can I change the lapel, the buttons or the trousers?
A. Yes, in the same way. A peak lapel, a single button, a skirt instead of trousers, or trousers without the stripe are all possible.
Q. Can I wear it to a wedding?
A. Yes. As a guest, wear it in navy, charcoal or black with a silk camisole; as a bride, white tropical wool with the satin shawl lapel makes a striking alternative to a gown.
Q. Is a white tuxedo practical?
A. White suits summer, daytime events and photographs beautifully. Black, navy and charcoal are easier to keep clean if you will wear it often.
Q. Rent or buy?
A. A rented tuxedo is cut for an average body and returned the next morning. One cut to your measurements fits from the first wearing, and after two or three events it has cost less than repeated rentals.
Q. How do I measure without a tailor nearby?
A. A friend with the tape makes it easier. On your own, measure bust, natural waist, hips, trouser waist, thigh and ankle, then a jacket and trousers that fit you; we can help over video call or WhatsApp.
Q. Can I have plum tuxedo trousers?
A. The cloths for this women’s tuxedo are the ones in the selector, so plum tuxedo trousers are not an option. A plum or purple satin lining is available in the lining selector, which shows when the jacket is open.
Q. Can I see the wool before ordering?
A. Yes. Our swatch service sends up to four samples of about 2 by 4 inches. They usually arrive within 4 to 6 business days. Quote product number 2600003 and the colors you want to compare; the courier fee is credited toward your first order.
Q. How do I care for it?
A. Dry clean only and rarely, and keep perfume away from the satin. Store a white tuxedo in a breathable cotton bag, never plastic.
