Please make sure the pant legs do not drag on the ground. Suggestions would be to stitch or pin the pants to the correct length. Do not use double sided tape or iron on pellon. Doing so will result in an automatic purchase of the tuxedo.
The arms of the jacket may be altered if additional length is needed. We recommend you take the suit to a tailor for alterations to ensure the best results.
Any temporary alterations made to the costume MUST be removed before you ship the costume back. There will be a $20 charge for alterations not removed.
Reasonable wear to the costume is to be expected and accepted. DAMAGE is considered to have occurred by: tearing, burning, cutting, stains that can not be cleaned, make-up stains, medallions, badges or other kinds of trim which make holes in the fabric, removal of buttons or shoulder pads.
Knee slides are not to be performed while in the tuxedo. Doing so damages the knees of the pants. If slides are done the renter will be responsible for purchasing the tuxedo.
