Wearing a tuxedo is a great and wonderful experience that is done by most people a few times a year. Since this garment is only used a few times a year it makes sense that a persons tuxedo is in storage most of the time.
This piece was written to offer advice on how to properly store tuxedos. Upon finishing this article you will know more about tuxedo storage than you did before.
Examining the tuxedo for discoloration is the first step that needs to be taken. Be sure to eliminate any stains before they have time to set into the fabric. This is much easier if you do it right after the event rather than after it has been stored for a year.
Appraise the tuxedo for splits in material before tucking it away in your storage area. Looking for these damages will give you the luxury of being able to pull out a perfect tux from storage the next time you wear it.
Use a storage area that is tidy and away from any type of light that may discolor the fabric of your tux. This simple step could save you from having to buy a new tuxedo three years from now.
Be afraid of the damages that moths can inflict on clothing. Use this fear in a healthy way to remind yourself to place some sort of cedar material in and around your tuxedo to keep moths away.
Lastly make sure to air out the tuxedo occasionally and check it for a proper fit. Bodies shrink and expand and sometimes clothes that fit six months ago will not fit today.
