Hey.
I know alot of the seniors in this forum have prom coming up soon.
I did a search and couldnt find anything, so i posted this.
Anyway,
what kind of tux you getting?
i want to be completely original, so iam goign to look for a completely white tux with top hat, and cane.
I havent heard anybody at my school doing this.
So,
any other ideas?

I'm a junior in HS so I'm not planning on to prom this year but one of my senior friends just said the exact same thing the other day,lol, he was like "man I'm gonna go all out and get me a white tux with a white pimp cane... etc." but it's still a pretty original idea so I'd def. do that. Be pimpin' in your white suit and you'll stick out from the crowd. Matter of fact, I think I'm gonna wear a suit to prom too ;)

I'm getting a Pimp suit, probably. My parents are gonna give me money (couple 100$) and they said I had to buy whatever I wanna wear for prom with it. So it's either a Pimp suit (complete with cane and hat) or a James Bond tux.

I wanna leave one last memory of the crazy me, lol

superman i once thought of doing the same thing, except a different color.

then i realised it would just be a cry for attention, and decided to just go with the cheapest/best looking on me tux i can find.

im not going to say you have to match your girls prom dress, but she may be pissed if u dont lol.

I'm not sure about the top hat & cane (unless you're going in an actual fur-lined pimp suit), but white tux's are stellar as long as you arent a white boy with blonde hair.

Also, something to consider (my friends and I are doing this) is renting a Limo to drive you and your buds to the dance. They're sorta spendy, but this is my last prom, and its gonna be memorable :p

In my school everyone's sayin they gonna dress up like a pimp, so the idea isn't so fresh to me.

Everyone seems to be gettin a tux. Limo's too expensive.

I"m poor.

Most likely, black suit w/ black shirt and silver tie. and a taxi ride.

Comments much appreciated

I'm a sophomore and I'm goin to prom. I have an black suit with a white shirt, white tie. I'm still deciding whether to go with white shoes or black shoes. Probably black.

Yeah I forgot to mention something on the shoes - If you've got some really pimped out shoes like Air Force 1's (I'll be wearing these), old school Jordans, maybe even some Air Walks (basically a casual, yet good looking clean shoe), I'd suggest wearing them. Or at least trying them on infront of the mirror if you're having doubts.

Personally, the black shoes you get with a tux are too ... "slippery" to dance in.

I just got mine yesterday. Heres a picture of one similiar to it: Here
I think it looks pretty pimp. I got it at Mr. Formal, but reccomend going to Mens Warehouse, because they are a lot cheaper. I just didnt find out in time.

If you're going for originality..........
sweatpants + Nascar tanktop + velcro shoes. A pimp cane with a feather hat would also add to the outfit. It also works better if the clothes are grungy and full of holes.

While we're on the "originality thing," - I knew a guy who graduated last year that wore a Hugh Hefner smoking jacket to the prom. Looked pretty stylish.

My cuz always has to be a freak. Yeah he's got the tux...but you gotta see his face! He films monster movies and stuff with his friends...this year he went to prom with a green monster face with blood and stuff all over it. One of the greatest pics of the night is him sticking a fork in his face!

I got the classic James Bond 007 style white tuxedo with a silver vest, silver bowtie and black pants with black shoes. It looks sexaaaaay.

I'd say stick to black and white, can't go wrong at all with those.
