Weddings Winter 2010 > Grooms

Agnès B

Grooms hit up Agnès B. for subtle, simple formal wear. Popular styles for weddings include the Matt jacket, a two-button evening number ($785), and the Peter pants ($365).

APC

Leave it to the French to do everything better—A.P.C.’s hip clothes, with their narrow European-style fit, are perfect for a casual wedding. A black suit of light alpaca wool is a classic option for more formal affairs (jacket from $500, pants from $220).

Ascot Chang

This Hong Kong import caters to the conservative man. Though the boutique offers prêt-à-porter (from $2,950), most who ascribe to its detail-oriented aesthetic have their tuxes made to order (from $3,000).

Baldwin Formals

Rent ($100 to $230) or buy (from $595) all sorts of formal attire in this welcoming store, where they have everything from morning suits to tuxedo standards from designers like Givenchy and Charles Jourdan.

This brand’s narrow Italian cuts make for famously clean silhouettes with pinstripes galore. The tuxedo, with a groom’s choice of fabric, lapels, and cut, is ready in six to eight weeks (from $7,500).

Brooks Brothers
