Tuxedo T-Shirts - Not Just For Bachelor Parties Anymore

I used to wear a tux tee in high school. I can say this now because it was just a few years ago that I realized that my favorite t-shirt had come back and gone main stream. I will give credit for this pleasant turn of events to Blake Lewis for wearing a tuxedo t-shirt on stage while appearing on American Idol. I would also like to acknowledge a classic quote from Cal in Talledaga Nights - "I like to picture Jesus in a tuxedo T-Shirt because it says I want to be formal, but I'm here to party". I have also seen more teams using them as uniforms like Philly did or Lyn-Z Adams Hawkins in the X Games. These are all examples of how main stream this shirt has gone. The classic tuxedo tee has gone from gag gift to fashion statement in just a few short years.

Is it ok to wear one of these to a job interview? Probably not. But it does appear to be socially acceptable to wear it to any given party. If you wear a suit jacket over top I submit this is now suitable for a wedding or any other very formal affair. I have seen these used for bands, baseball teams, grand openings, anniversary parties,and even to meet penguins. Many people still wear them to get a laugh but many of us (me included of course) just like the way they look.So if you have to be formal but you want to say I am here to party get yourself a tuxedo t shirt and let your hair down.
