Burgundy Tuxedos, Suits, & Blazers

Your Complete Guide to Burgundy Tuxedos, Suits, & Blazers

What This Collection Is

Burgundy formalwear is where confidence meets sophistication. This collection includes burgundy tuxedos, modern suits, and standout blazers designed for men who want color, depth, and personality without sacrificing polish. Expect rich wine tones, deep merlot shades, and textured finishes that photograph beautifully in both natural and low light. You’ll find everything from classic satin-trim tuxedos to sleek two-piece suits and statement jackets that pair effortlessly with black, gold, or crisp white accessories.

Why This Collection Matters

Burgundy has become one of the most requested colors for weddings, banquets, and prom because it strikes the perfect balance—bold but not loud, stylish but still formal. This collection lets you step away from basic black and navy while staying firmly in “elegant” territory. Perfect Tux curates burgundy pieces that offer better fit options, deeper color ranges, and modern silhouettes compared to rentals or department store basics. If you’re close to our Santa Clarita showroom, you can compare shades side by side and see which tone works best for your event and complexion.

How to Choose the Right Burgundy Look

Fit: Slim, Modern, or Classic

For a burgundy style to look intentional, the fit has to be clean. Slim and modern fits are the most popular because they make the color look sharper and more tailored. Classic fit works well for men who prefer more room in the chest and shoulders.

Choosing the Right Shade

Burgundy comes in multiple depths—dark wine, medium merlot, or brighter berry tones. Deep tones pair best with black lapels and formal settings. Medium shades work well for weddings and seasonal events. If you want a bolder entrance, consider shades found in our purple & lavender tuxedos collection for inspiration, but stay grounded in the richness of burgundy.

Fabric & Seasonality

Satin-trim tuxedos are ideal for fall and winter black-tie events. Lightweight suit fabrics work year-round, especially for weddings or prom. If you like texture, look toward patterned options similar to those in our paisley tuxedo jackets collection.

Body Type Considerations

Burgundy is extremely flattering on most skin tones. Taller or broader men may appreciate structured shoulders and darker shades. Slim builds look great in sleek, minimal designs with peak or shawl lapels.

Accessories That Complement Burgundy

Black is the go-to pairing—black shirt, black bow tie, black loafers. Gold accents work exceptionally well too, especially if you’re considering pieces that echo the style of our black tuxedos with gold accents. A simple pocket square or clean tie keeps the look elevated and intentional.

Styling Tips

Burgundy works best when the rest of your outfit stays clean and intentional. A burgundy tux jacket with black tuxedo pants delivers a strong, modern contrast. For full suits, pair with a white tuxedo shirt and a minimal tie for a refined, wedding-ready look. If you prefer something more standout, consider textures like brocade or paisley—similar to our floral tuxedo jackets and brocade tuxedo jackets—to bring dimension without overwhelming the color.

Finish with polished footwear—loafers or dress shoes similar to styles in our tuxedo shoes collection—and keep jewelry minimal to let the burgundy stand out.

Event-Specific Guidance

Weddings

Burgundy is a favorite for fall and winter weddings. Grooms often choose a burgundy tux or suit, while groomsmen wear black or charcoal for contrast. Explore complementary shades in our groomsmen suits or wedding tuxedos collections if you need cohesive group styling.

Prom

Prom shoppers love burgundy because it stands out in photos and pairs easily with black shoes and accessories. If you want something bold, consider mixing in textured jackets or exploring ideas in our prom suits & tuxedos collection.

Banquets, Galas & Formal Events

Burgundy tuxedos strike the perfect balance between classic and modern. If the dress code is formal or black-tie optional, this color is one of the strongest choices you can make.

Holiday & Seasonal Celebrations

Rich burgundy tones pair perfectly with winter and holiday events. For themed or festive gatherings, you can add subtle texture or metallic elements without going full “statement jacket.” For bolder options, browse holiday party outfits.
