Description
Overview
Also known as a Marcella Bib front, the Pique Bib Front is a classic formal style with a textured panel covering the chest, often pressed and starched for a crisp look up front. According to buzz on the style forums, this is the shirt Brando's Vito Corleone character sports at his daughter's wedding in the opening scene of The Godfather, but at the same time, it's totally timeless.
Our tuxedo shirts all include a removable button-band for the top four shirt buttons, which allows you to wear the shirt with or without studs.
*Studs, bow tie, and cuff links not included.Fabric Specs

Fantastic tuxedo shirt. Really pops - looks great.
Dylan M. (Austin, TX)
Exactly what I needed in a formal shirt. Even if - like me - you avoid black tie at all costs, when you find yourself forced to sport a tux, this shirt makes it all come together.

A perfect tuxedo shirt. Bright white and holds up well for an entire evening of wear.
Joshua P. (Paducah, KY)
The pique front looks great and seems to resist wrinkles well. The rest of the shirt is standard lightweight broadcloth, not fully opaque and easy to wrinkle. That isn't a big problem for a tux shirt though were you are going to keep your jacket on anyway.

It's worked well as a tuxedo shirt, which a nice weight and is stiff enough to hold a crease but not suffocating. However, for some reason it just will not stay tucked in. I think it may be due to the pique bib, but I'm not 100% sure. It's the same size as my other shirts, so I'm not sure what else it would be.
