Nooooo! The '70s are back!

Men's Wearhouse features this.


Do you think an ivory dress will clash with it?

I don't hate the white tux, but I'm not sure how an ivory dress would look with it.

Oh my!

My dad wore a white tux at my parents wedding in 1982.

It's not the worst thing ever, but does it ever draw attention!

I keep picturing John Travolta pointing to the sky.

I'm going to be that weirdo who says I love 70s fashion! Could that all white tux be for prom rentals when his date is likely to have a bright colored dress? I think that would look pretty snazzy. (Also I have horrible taste, so please disregard any fashion advice I give)

I love the 70s too. Obviously not everything but there are some things I would love to come back.

You wouldn't love 70s fashion if you had lived through it.  Polyester double knit heaven.

You're probably right! I had a few vintage-heavy years and I can't say they were the most comfy clothes I've ever worn

This reminds me of prom - where certain dudes had to "stand out".

I was so happy weddings were slowly moving away from prom-ish styling where the bridesmaids were matchy matchy with the groomsmen...but now this?

I don't know about white tuxes, but I think white suits at least have been somewhat common for weddings. My cousin wore one at his wedding 8-10 years ago, and I regularly see pictures of men in white suits at their weddings.

Can you believe that David and Victoria Beckham (who are now regularly voted as one of the most stylish couples in the world) wore this at their wedding?!


I mean, I guess it was era appropriate for late 90's, but I forgot the style was 'greased-up Chav chic'. 

Eta: just because you can't see in the photo the gloriousness of their hair.
