Young man in black tuxedo — Year 12 formal suit hire, Man About Town Sydney

The suit that
makes the night.

Man About Town has dressed Sydney men — and Sydney students — since 1987. For the Year 12 formal we carry the full range: black and navy tuxedos for the classic look, dinner suits, and sharp lounge suits for a more relaxed dress code. Every hire is fitted in-store and altered in-house, so it sits right on the night.

Formal season is busy — September through November books out fast. Come in early, or organise a group so the whole table is fitted together. Same-day hire is generally available if you have left it late. Planning something more formal? See our tuxedo hire Sydney and black tie hire ranges.

Formal season in Sydney runs from roughly September to November and books out fast. We recommend coming in three to four weeks ahead, especially if you are organising a group. Same-day hire is generally available if you have left it late, subject to stock.
Yes. We regularly fit groups of friends and whole tables together, so the look is consistent in the photos. For groups of four or more, booking three to four weeks in advance is recommended. Bring everyone in together for the fitting where you can.
It depends on the dress code. A tuxedo — black, navy or a white dinner jacket — is the classic formal look and always reads sharp. A lounge suit is the right call for a more relaxed dress code, and it is something you can wear again afterwards. Come in and we will talk you through both.
