Men's Wearhouse features this. :o
Pronto Uomo White Satin Edged Peak Lapel

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.
