The powder blue suits were having a moment in the 70s with men preferring it to wear it to the proms and weddings. But the blue tuxedos had it's popularity streak even before that in the 50s and 60s of the 20th century. The tuxedos that appeared in the magazines were mostly of conservative nature. These tuxedos and suits were mostly targeting the sophisticated men who preferred to wear the formal wear even during the casual days. These suits and tuxedos were usually of the standard colors like black and navy.
But the unorthodox suits and tuxedos and the unconventionally colored ones were introduced to attract the younger generation who liked to be on the fun and trendy side of clothing. Thus the blue tuxedos at that time were a major style favorite among men who attended prom and weddings. Though the vintage photos of the groom wearing the blue tuxedos might look like a sloppy look with poor workmanship and cheap fabrics like polyester this majorly indicated that the blue tuxedos were mass produced which in turn means that the garments were also greatly popular at that time and the demand was abundant.
But in recent times the tailoring of the formal garments have reached new heights with the technology and the apparel industry flourishing.

Also the varieties involved has also multiplied to a great degree thus providing everyone with a choice to choose according to their taste. The fit of the
dark blue tuxedos is an important detail to note since the lighter colored garments tend to attract a lot of attention when compared with the usual dark colored ones.
Slim fit powder blue tuxedos and classic cut blue tuxedos are the usual recommendations when you want a standard looking fit for the garment. When you need a distinct look then you can go with skinny fit blue tuxedos since they deliver a more fitting look when compared with the previous two fits. Italian cut blue tuxedos are also a good style when you need a laid back cool look for the garment. If you are not satisfied with any of these fits you can take it to your tailor for alterations or you can go with the custom made powder blue suits if the money involved is not a constraint.
