Peak Lapel Tuxedos

Notice the tuxedos on the red carpet at the last Academy Award? If you did, you would have noticed that peak lapels are back. Though real men of style will tell you that a refined gentleman would never be caught dead in anything but a peak lapel tuxedo. Some popular peak lapels are made by Ralph Lauren, Jean Yves, After Six and Neil Allyn.

What exactly is a peak lapel? You can see by the photos below that on a peak lapel, the top of the lapel spikes (or peaks) sharply upward and outward. To view tuxedos in other lapel styles, please view shawl lapel tuxedos and notch lapel tuxedos.
