How do i match my prom date's lavender dress without having to wear a white or lavender suit?
haha. No worries!! You don't have to wear lavender at all if you don't want to. Certainly a black suit with a lavender boutiner (sp?) or whatever little lavender accent is fine. If you don't want that though, royal blue looks great with lavender. You could also try a pale green. You don't have to be matchy matchy. You can just complement the colors she is wearing.
Reply:wear black...that works
Reply:black suit with a lavender tie or dress shirt!
Reply:a black suit with....lavender cumberbun? or tie? or bow tie maybe? or a nice lavender dress shirt?
Reply:All good answers given already, you could also try a lavender flower the guys wear that matches. Sorry, I don't know how to spell what I am talking about and it is not coming up under spell check.
Reply:Why not try a grey suit it would look nice.You could also get one of the new ones with the ganster style stripes that would be very cool. Don't worry so much about matching just try not to clash.Many lavender match well with a light blue colour. If you have a Moores near you go with the Matrix vest in periwinkle it will go nicely.If you don't matrix is a design that has the blue background with black over top.
Reply:YOU COULD WEAR EITHER A LAVENDER TIE OR VEST.
Reply:you can wear a reg black tux with maybe a lavender dress shirt or you can go with all black including dress shirt and wear a nice lavender tie with a lavender boutonniere, personally i think the black on black will look best
Reply:Yeah wear black tux with a lavender vest..
Reply:wear a black suit with a lavender tie or bow or find a lavender dyed rose to pin it on your suit!
Reply:Dear tekkentag4, if you wear a black tux and just add a lavendar flower thing in your pocket, then you should be good.

I hope you guys have fun.
