    Does anyone know where one can rent a very stylish tux? Something like a Calvin Klein or Hugo Boss preferably?

    I've nothing against Black Tie but I was wondering where one could get one slightly more upmarket?

    Whats your budgit - remembering that you will most likely need to also get a wing shirt, bowtie, shoes, cufflinks, shirt studs and perhaps a cumberbund too. Figure €35/50 for the shirt. €30 for the bowtie (buy a proper one and learn how to tie it, it's really simple). Shoes €100+. Cufflinks and shirt studs €50. I've no idea on the costs of a cumberbund as I personly don't like them.
    And remember that going for a high street brand name does not necessarly mean you are getting quality.

    Most mens outfitters will have a tuxedos and prices will range from €150 to €1500. Brown Thomas, Arnotts, Clearys, M&S will all stock a selection.

    I'm older than Minecraft goats.

    Don't know about 'high end' but anytime one of these threads come up i recommend Tangos dress hire, in temple Bar.

    http://www.tangosdresshire.ie/ (website isn't great)

    They really know their stuff and will tailor the rental in store. A friend got kitted out for his wedding there and they were completely amazing. Blew Black Tie out of the water. They really REALLY know their stuff. Might not be Hugo Boss, but if a tux fits you properly, it could be m&s for all that it matters. You could easily get a badly fitting calvin klein rental that'll make you look crap.
