I have 2 ballgowns, and I have a few other things, like my BM dress from my sister's wedding and my prom dress from HS (LOL) that could be used in a pinch
FH has a tux, but he gained weight and it no longer fits. it's a 40, and now he's a 44! I keep trying to get him to lose weight just so he won't need to drop anohter $500 on a tux

yeah Heather! Better get away from that ragtag bunch!!!!
ETA: Seriously not EVERYONE needs one, but most proessionals I find SO need them at one point or another, coprorate or profesisoanl events, weddings, formal fundraisers, etc. And in my family LOTS of wedding. In the 2 years since FH bought his tux we've been to 5 formal weddings!
I know, I would love to go to formal events--am usually ovedresed for life in general. I rarely even wear sneakers to the mall!

Re: POLL: Do you own formalwear
I used to have a few formal gowns, then I lost weight so I had to give them away. Now, I have one cocktail dress that I wore to my cousin's wedding, but no ball gowns. Although I'd love an occasion to buy one

Re: POLL: Do you own formalwear
Forgot to answer for FH: I think he would laugh at me if I suggested he buy a tux. He owns a few suits, but he does not get dressed up often. Our jobs are really laid back and don't require dressing up.

I have a long black gown, but that's about it.
FH doesn't own a tux, and probably won't ever have to.
He's a teacher.

I have a few gowns but DH doesn't own a tux. We haven't gone to many black tie affairs.
