Gingiss, president of Gingiss Formalwear. His is the world's largest company special- izing in the rentai and sale of men's. formalwear, with over 240 Formai- wear Centers nationwide. "And," he adds, "the variety of styles allow the bride to select. sophisticated formal- wear without frar of the men dominat- ing the bridai entourage!' Gingiss projects black, greyand sil- ver to be this year's hottest. tuxedo colors, and says color coordination with dresses command their popular- ity. Highlighting models aiç, 2-nrt touches that distinguish lapel, collar and pocket treatments. Gingiss says, "The traditional tuxedo has peak or notch lapels; and the shawl collar tux-- edo is faced in matching fabric or sa- tin. Garments are also characterized by having, or not having pocket flaps."' The traditional Cutaway, or "morn- ing attire,'" is the mainstay for daytime weddings. It is worn with oxford grey striped trousers, a pearl grey vest, white wing collar shirt and a. striped or checked ascot tie. The Stroller, often worn by groomsmen or ushers, is compatible with the Cutaway, and distinguishes the rest of the wedding party from the groom. For an ultra formai wedding, Gin- giss suggests black tails with a white wing collar shirt and a white pique vest and bow tie. Full dress and tuxe- dos are the staple of attire for even- ing weddings, and are expected to rep- resent almost 50 percent or the wed-' ding market this year. -For the groom opting for a Euro- pean cut, a score of designers include Bill Blass, Pierre Cardin,1 Yves St. Laurent and Robert Stock.'Other real and fictitious personalities like Robert Wagner and "Dynasty" and "Miami Vice" characters have also lent their- faces to styles. These garments have unique features like cigarette pockets, satin-covered buttons and signature linings. Two looks on the upswing are the double brea sted tuxedos and colored dinner jackets. Gingiss will be stock- inig dinner jackets in unusual colors like lilac, pink and red. Inaccessories, brides are choosing colored cummerbund, tie and pocket square sets to accent the bridesmaid dresses. Popular colors this year will include true' pink, dusty rose, lilac, aqua and royal blue. As soon as you know what type of wedding you'll be having,,you can start window shopping. Be sure your formalwear -specialist offers mn-store try-on, final fittings and, services for out-of-town wedding party members. For example, Gingiss' Travel Tux Ser- vice allows the customers to be fitted in one center, and then pick it up at any one of the other locations na- tionwide. You should register with a formai- wear specialist six to eight weeks in advance of yÃ"ur wedding date. The men's attire is an integral part of your total.wedding look, and it's important that your groom and bis groomsmen have not only perfectly fitting formai- wear, but what's proper for the oc- casion. jt Let us help make your day a special one with flowers from F LOW ERS' &-G IF TS MiA BaIdWIug SI., Brookilo 655-3963 Flowers 0 Wedding Rentais * Invitations a Gifs Book before Mar. 1/87 & receive a personal gift certif icate from Mar-Jay's Organie Hair Renoval 1 Cdu
