jumper03 0 #1 December 8, 2006 I need to buy a new tux - my old one is in a sad state. I use it primarily for going to the opera but I'm thinking I can also use it to Tango in as well as I've been doing a lot more of that lately. I really like the classic english grey but that is more a day time outfit. So I'm torn between these two. I lean to the black jacket/white tie but decided to open the issue to voting.

You can always change the vest, tie and shoes to match your partners dress. Black is classic for the Tango and will be more versatile for other occasions. Additionally, with your coloring the black will suit your coloring better...unless of course you are as tan as George Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skymama 37 #17 December 9, 2006 Black, it's always best to go with the classic look.
