Fun Fashion Facts

Did you know that the tuxedo was originally designed for women? That's right! In the late 19th century, it was Pierre Lorillard IV who introduced the tuxedo at a ball in Tuxedo Park, New York. However, the first tuxedos were actually for women, styled as evening dresses with tails, before men adopted the look for a more formal yet less restrictive alternative to the tailcoat. So, next time you see someone in a tux, give a nod to the fashion-forward women who started the trend! #FashionHistory #TuxedoTales #TheDaizyPatch
