Dressing kids for formal events

Comfort, fit and the right set for ring bearers, page boys and every family photo.

Comfort

Comfort comes first.

A child who is comfortable behaves better and looks better. Choose soft linings and room to move, and let your child try the outfit on at home before the day.

Sets

Choose the set.

A full suit or tuxedo suits formal ceremonies. A vest set is cooler and easier for warm weather, family photos and ring bearers. See the Pawn collection to compare the cuts side by side.

Fit

Get the fit right.

Use the age as a starting point, then check the real measurements in our size guide. A little room is fine, but sleeves and trousers that are too long look sloppy and can trip a small child. Boys in larger sizes can shop the Husky Fit page.

Style

Match the party.

Match the color to the wedding party, or pick a neutral such as navy, black or grey. Keep shoes simple and comfortable.
