Combining men\u2019s suits, shirts and ties with women\u2019s oxfords will give you a well-fitting formal outfit that makes your honey weak at the knees while also showing her family what an upstanding choice you are for their baby munchkin-sugar-cutie-pie-doll-face. Topman is one of the few stores that carry men\u2019s clothes small enough to fit female-bodied people with smaller frames like myself, as its sizes go smaller than other men\u2019s brands.Topman Dark Sand Tailored Peak Suit: Topman\u2019s suits, such the one pictured above, come in a variety of female-friendly sizes, including short-legged pants. You might need to get the shoulders taken in a little, but since it\u2019s already a slim fitting suit, it conforms to women\u2019s bodies better than most men\u2019s suits I\u2019ve seen. Available at Topman for $320.Topman White Premium Dress Shirt: Pair the suit with a variety of dress shirts\u2014Topman\u2019s dress shirts have sizes ranging from XXS to XXL. A good tip for making men\u2019s shirts fit over hips is to have a tailor take up the length of the shirt. Available at Topman for $56.\u00a0Joseph & Feiss Black Satin Tie: A simple black tie can go a long way. The solid color allows the richness of the dark sand suit to speak for itself. Available at Men\u2019s Wearhouse for $19.99.The Frye James Oxford: Matching the dark lapels, The Frye James Oxford in Black Vintage Leather is among the few men\u2019s style dress shoes made for women. These well-priced old-school style classics will last you well beyond your rehearsal dinner. Available at ShopStyle.com for $198."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"You Passed the Audition, Now Onto the Rehearsal Dinner","item":"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/you-passed-the-audition-now-onto-the-rehearsal-dinner\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
