Want very top end tuxes, where to get them

Where can we get very top-end tuxes to rent. FH has seen amazing tuxes to buy for around $1200, but wants to rent one like that. Willing to pay around $200 for the rental.

This is a good question, FH wants an Oscar De la Renta Tux that they sell in this huge place is Woodside, I think the website that lists all the tux places, you could see if they rent was something like

blacktireattire.com try a search on that and there was a listing of states with high end retailers/renters.

Go to Victor Talbots in Greenvale. It is the Tux shop that was filmed in Meet The Parents. My DH got his Ralph Lauren Tux there... very high-end, they even have a espresso bar in the place!

Re: Want very top end tuxes, where to get them

Al and my Dad both bought designer tuxes for ~$250-350 (original store prices were WAY higher). You may want to look into that.

They bought online and got great deals and gorgeous tuxes - much better than the quality in rental shops. And they can wear them again (which Al already has -3 times!)

Most places don't rent high-end tuxes. (I have yet to find one.) The fabrics don't take the constant wearing as well.

Does Victor Talbots rent Ralph Lauren Purple Label or Brioni?

Re: Want very top end tuxes, where to get them

Go to Victor Talbots! My family actually knows him from way before he opened the store and when he first started renting tuxes my mom and stepdad were getting married and he came to our house to fit all the men b/c he didn't have a store location yet. My mom was friends with his wife for years. They are very nice tuxes and he has the 'rights' to exclusive lines of some designers. We haven't seen him in years though. I couldn't believe it when I saw the store in Meet the Parents!
