Locally owned. Locally stocked. Trusted for 50 years.
Fifty years in, and we still take this personally.
We’ve been doing formalwear in the Pacific Northwest for nearly 50 years, and a lot has changed; but the way we work hasn’t. We believe fit matters, details matter, and how you feel walking out the door matters just as much as how you look.
We’re local, we stock our own inventory, and we support our stores with a nearby warehouse. That means we can handle last-minute changes, quick adjustments, and those small fixes that make a big difference. No waiting on shipping. No crossing your fingers and hoping it works out.
Our stylists know trends, but more importantly, they know people. Whether it’s your first prom, your wedding day, or a big night you want to feel confident walking into, we’ll take the time to get it right. That’s how we’ve stayed around for 50 years and why so many families keep coming back.
When you come into Mr. Formal, you’re not handed a rack and left on your own. Our stylists help you narrow things down, figure out what works for your body and your event, and make sure the fit is right. Whether this is your first time wearing a suit or your hundredth, we’ll walk you through it without overcomplicating things.
This isn’t about following trends for the sake of it. It’s about walking out feeling confident in what you’re wearing.
Browse a few styles to get inspired, then schedule an appointment to come in for an initial visit. Our stylists will help you choose a look, dial in the fit, and handle the details for your group.
“Lex was awesome!! I had no clue what to expect walking into here. I’ve never rented a suit bought a suit of any kind, but I walked in here I was greeted. She asked me what were my needs? What was my event? And she got right to work, helping me figure this thing out she took a couple of measurements and I was in the fitting room within minutes trying on clothes. It was very seamless and painless and cheaper than I thought it was gonna be so thanks a lot. I appreciate Everything thank you very much!!!” – Joshua M. December 2024
“I was just in Mr Formal. I was given exemplary service. I was greeted right away. She was very warm and I felt welcome. She answered all of my questions promptly and without haste. She was very professional and disciplined. She rocked it! Thank you so much! I was having a hard time at the other tuxedo shops and this one by far exceeded my expectations! Great customer service!” – Susan T. December 2024
“Hollie has taken care of the weddings for both of my daughters! Both went just as we had hoped! Both grooms looked so handsome in the suits from Mr. Formal. Thank you, Hollie!” – Shewolf9. December 2024
Match your colors.
If you’ve ever worried about getting the colors right, you’re not alone. Because we stock everything locally, matching colors is straightforward. Bring in a photo, fabric swatch, or even just a general idea, and we’ll help you find something that works with the rest of the look — whether it’s a dress, wedding colors, or small accent details.
You don’t need to overthink it. That’s our job.
Accessories? We’ve got you covered.
The little things matter — and they’re usually the easiest part to forget. Shoes are available for rent, and they come with hosiery, so you’re not scrambling at the last minute.
We’ll also help you line up the details, like making sure your belt and shoes work together. Full rental packages include studs and cufflinks, with a few finish options to choose from. It’s all handled in one place, so nothing feels pieced together.
A big selection, for a simple reason.
We keep a wide range of styles, sizes, and colors in stock because no two events — or groups — are the same. Some people know exactly what they want. Others need to see a few options before it clicks. Either way, we make sure you have real choices without making the process overwhelming.
Our stylists have been doing this a long time. They’ll help you narrow things down, figure out what works for your event, and make sure the fit is right. Classic, modern, or somewhere in between — the goal is always the same: you walk out feeling confident in what you’re wearing.
Walk-ins are welcome, but scheduling an appointment gives us the time to focus on you and your group. We’ll talk through the details, take measurements, and help you build a look that feels right for the moment you’re planning.
