Planning your Prom 2026 look? We’ve got you covered! In this video, you’ll see how easy it is to measure yourself at home for the perfect fit. Whether you’re shopping for a tuxedo, suit, or shirt, knowing your coat size, pant size, and shirt size is the first step to owning your style on prom night.
- A flexible measuring tape (or string + ruler)
- A friend or mirror for accuracy
- A notepad or phone to record your numbers
How to Measure for Your Perfect Fit
Follow along with the video and use these steps for reference:
- Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape snug but not tight.
- Waist: Measure just above your belly button where your pants naturally sit.
- Hips: Wrap the tape around the widest part of your hips and seat.
- Sleeve: Start from the shoulder seam, down your arm to where the cuff should end.
- Inseam: Measure from the crotch to the top of your shoe heel.
Once you have your numbers, you can easily match them to our size chart for a Perfect Tux fit. Still unsure? Reach out to our customer service team or take advantage of Unlimited Returns for peace of mind.
Why Fit Matters
The right fit transforms your confidence—it’s not just about measurements, but how you feel wearing your tux or suit. Prom night is your time to own your look, so make sure every detail fits perfectly.
💡 Pro tip: If you’re between sizes, choose the larger one—you can always tailor down for a sharp, custom fit.
