Combatant Gentlemen Launches The Groom's Suite
Online dashboard helps brides and grooms easily coordinate outfits for their groomsmen online
IRVINE, Calif., June 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Combatant Gentlemen Inc. (www.combatgent.com), the online retailer that has disrupted the menswear industry with its innovative "sheep-to-closet" supply chain, announces the launch of The Groom's Suite, an online dashboard that enables brides and grooms to outfit their groomsmen more efficiently than ever before. With suits starting at $160 and tuxes starting at $200, the prices are competitive with those of leading rental chains, making Combatant Gentlemen a popular destination for style and budget-conscious brides and grooms who prefer to buy rather than rent.
"Coordinating groomsmen outfits for a wedding can be a huge logistical headache for couples, so we wanted to build something that would make their lives a little bit easier," says Vishaal Melwani, CEO and Creative Director of Combatant Gentlemen. "By creating The Groom's Suite, we're supplementing the outstanding service our wedding stylists currently provide with robust technology so it'll be simpler than ever to coordinate outfits for your big day."
The Groom's Suite allows brides and grooms to:
- Build and assign outfits to each member of their wedding party, drawing on Combatant Gentlemen's collection of wedding-ready suits, tuxes, shirts and accessories
- View the status of every groomsman's order and identify who has completed their order and who has outstanding tasks
- Video chat with a stylist and receive personalized outfit recommendations
- Automatically remind groomsmen about next steps via email to streamline communication
Combatant Gentlemen began offering wedding-specific products and promotions in February 2014 in response to overwhelming demand from customers who did not want to rent a tux or spend thousands of dollars on their groomsmen's outfits. Now weddings are one of the fastest-growing sectors of Combatant Gentlemen's business, having grown over 500% from 2014 to 2015. Prior to the launch of The Groom's Suite, all wedding orders were handled over the phone.
"Once we saw how many people were turning to us for their wedding outfits, we knew we had to take our wedding business to the next level," says Melwani. "Thanks to The Groom's Suite, brides and grooms will have one less thing to worry about."
