    Keep it simple - A classic black tuxedo is always a safe bet. Avoid anything too trendy or flashy.

    Focus on fit - Your tuxedo should fit you like a glove. The trousers should be slim but not too tight, and the jacket should be tailored to your body.

    Accessorize wisely - The cummerbund, a pivotal accessory in Deen's dress code, embraces his waistline, striking a harmonious balance between his tuxedo jacket and trousers.

    Finishing touch - Opt for the classic laced black patent shoe – a timeless choice that exudes sophistication. Accompany them with black socks, ideally in a higher model to maintain a polished appearance throughout the event. Your footwear completes the ensemble, ensuring you radiate refined elegance from head to toe.

    Carry yourself with confidence - Confidence is key to achieving black tie elegance. When you walk into a room, you should feel like you belong there.
