He checked out my tux and how it fit me and suggested keeping the jacket and getting new pants and a shirt, which I did (and was cheaper than a whole new tux). John had me try on multiple sizes of pants and shirt to get the best fit, and told me about the different options. The new pants and shirt fit way better than the old ones and the price was reasonable. My tux looks so much better now!John is a friendly guy and the service was excellent. I would definitely go back here if I have further tux needs!

I just got married this past weekend in Waltham. During the wedding planning process, I researched…read morevarious online suit rental places such as Menguin and the Black Tux at Nordstrom. I was unimpressed by the service I received by them and the way they calculated measurements (Those services don't actually take measurements and you have input the information yourself). I also had bad experiences with Men's Warehouse in the past with other weddings that I have attended as a groomsmen. I realized that there was a local option in Waltham for me to check out. The staff at Formalwear Ltd were very friendly and knowledgeable. I visited the store multiple times as I collaborated with them and my fiance to select the perfect tux combination for my wedding. I picked up my tux a couple of days before the wedding and the size for some of the parts of it were off, but it was no problem at all as they overnighted the correct sizes. Everything fit perfectly for my wedding. If you need to rent a suit or tux for a local event, I highly recommend them!

She told me not to bother looking, as each was one of a kind, and the items that would fit my body are wrapped in plastic pouches in the back of the store. For reference, I am 5'7", 150 pounds. I measured 40 inches around the bust. I told her I thought this was a really lousy choice, to only display clothes for the smallest among us, since the samples you can see/touch don't actually come in larger sizes -- each garment is unique. She said that the most popular size that she sells is 45. I can't speak to the service or quality of her garments, I chose not to buy there because of this initial interaction.

I purchased a dress for a summer wedding and was very disappointed with the quality. The material…read morefelt extremely cheap, both in the fabric itself and in the overall construction of the dress. The measurements listed online appear to be standardized across all dresses and did not reflect the actual fit of this particular item. The dress was significantly tighter than expected, and I could not zip it up despite ordering based on the provided measurements. I also found the return/exchange policy frustrating. While I understood that only exchanges are offered, it is disappointing that customers are required to pay for shipping both to return the item and again to receive a replacement. Overall, the experience was frustrating and not what I expected.

She directed to the Men's Suit Department and initially help me by measuring me as I have not purchased a suit in a while. She guided me with several selections within my price range.

She then selected several shirts and ties that matched the individual suits still unsure she continued to present different combination of shirts and ties.
