What is a tuxedo?
Tuxedo is a dress worn by European men on formal special occasions, which was born out of the court dress in medieval Europe. Its basic structure is short front, suit collar, long back and dovetail back, with two slits, which originated from the clothing modeling of European coachmen. The color is mostly black, which means serious, earnest and sacred.
With the passage of time, tuxedo has developed into two styles. One is British style. The British style is mainly high lapels, and it is a symmetrical triangle. It's double-breasted when it's buckled. Usually worn with white shorts. If you wear tight pants, you should wear black leather boots.
The second is French, which is characterized by a long front swing. If paired with black velvet shorts, it will look very handsome. Later, the tuxedo became a symbol of elegance. Especially in the middle of19th century, the tuxedo is no longer the original double-breasted style, but a fashionable single-breasted and uncut style, and it is no longer necessary to match boots. At that time, evening dresses, especially black, could be seen in many ceremonies or important occasions, which became the darling of many European men.

When choosing, you must pay attention to those pants with deep crotch. Generally, there is no belt, but there are straps.
