TUXEDO TIME!

In the spring, a young lady's fancy turns to ice cream (or is it love?) while a young man's fancy turns to...tuxedos!  For your formal wear needs this Spring 2012 and beyond, look no further than FL Crooks & Co, located at 539 Main Street in Clarion.  FL Crooks & Co has been working with Jim's Formal Wear for 6 years now to offer the very best in tuxedo wear rental.   The collection includes styles designed by Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Jean Yves, Stephen Geoffrey, Andrew Fezza and new for this season, another award winning fashion designer, Tony Bowls.
Tailored in Super 100's fabric, the tuxedos feature two, three, or four button fronts.  Most are single breasted in styling, while double breasted styles are available as well.  As far as color is concerned, Ben, from the Men's Department at FL Crooks & Co, states "We did a lot of whites and ivory for a recent fashion show."  There are over 385 tie styles and 175 full back vests available in a rainbow of colors.

Ben commented that "the newest looks are the slim fit styles which feature a narrow lapel and a slimmer waistline".  Creating a flattering V-shaped silhouette, this style is the ideal choice for an athletic-built gentleman looking for a fitted styling in a tuxedo.

Available April 15th are the new flat front formal trousers.  Sized from a Boys 18 through a Men's 65, these pants are tailored with a unique beaded stripe down the pant leg.  An adjustable waist gives maximum comfort.

Shirts to complement the tuxedo are fitted and styled from microfiber.
