"Partnering with David's Bridal expedites our growth plans as we scale to become the largest suit and tuxedo brand in the United States," said Andrew Blackmon, co-founder of The Black Tux. "They are the largest, most influential bridal retailer out there, and a true wedding industry icon. Our product offerings blend seamlessly with the array of options available at David's Bridal, providing every customer a fully integrated and interactive shopping experience."

David's Bridal has stated that The Black Tux will have a brand and digital presence, exclusive offers, and product in their retail locations, with plans to continually build out exposure for the menswear partner.

About The Black Tux

The Black Tux was created to disrupt the outdated formal wear rental industry, replacing tired tuxedos, ill-fitting suits, and lackluster quality with premium fabrics, modern style, and the perfect fit. The company was founded in 2013 by friends Andrew Blackmon and Patrick Coyne who, out of frustration while preparing for Andrew's wedding, recognized the need for a better alternative to traditional tux and suit rental offerings. With showroom locations across the country (including shops in over 20 Nordstrom doors) and a full-service website (www.TheBlackTux.com), The Black Tux delivers designer-quality formal wear, an exceptional fit, and a seamless experience at a fair price.
