Fred Astaire: Groom Style Icon
it's not all about dresses, you both deserve to gasp when you see each other on your wedding day. an easy way to accomplish this is to take a page from silver screen icon Fred Astaire. he didn't just dance, he did it with style. he put the same passion into his clothes.

often seen in a tuxedo or suit, Astaire eschewed fancy lapels or trendy styles, always opting for a classic, somewhat slim fit that moved. he loved Brooks Brothers; his secret weapon was an expert fit tailored to his body and personality. tailoring is a must, a precise fit can enhance your entire day, changing the way you walk, talk. it gives you effortless confidence, and there is nothing sexier than that.

get the look: crisp black and white never goes out of fashion. try a small white bow tie paired with a white shirt for a touch of timeless elegance. don't skip the boutonniere, pop a handkerchief or pocket square right below it.

if you want to express yourself, do it with accessories. this is where Astaire added whimsy, often wearing patterned ties (sometimes as a belt), or bright colored, striped socks. black and white saddle shoes are an unconventional yet still classic look.

if your groom really wants to go for it, rock the top hat, tails, and a cane. as Esquire magazine put it, "you're the life of the party, dress like it."

thank you so much to
dog'n'bird
for sharing these awesome groomswear ideas.
i don't think there is quite a better to style it up like fred astaire.
such a classic, elegant and suave way to go for a groom.
swoon-worthy style




another of the greats, along with gene kelly,
fred astaire.
just say his name and visions of him dancing come right to mind.
he got to dance with so many of the goddesses of those days,
including ginger rogers, rita hayworth, judy garland,
and of course, the ever amazing, cyd charisse.



stay tuned to see what could inspire you from fred astaire's style.
