Men's tuxedo shirts that have smooth or pleated fronts are common enough; we all see them fairly often, and each style has solidified itself as a strong contender in the competitive field of men's formalwear. What's less common are pique formal shirts. Also known in the United Kingdom as Marcella style, these shirts feature a dimpling or "waffle like" effect to the fabric that gives it an intriguingly patterned texture.

This style is still in the fledgling stages of popularity, but as more men embrace new ways to explore the traditions of formalwear, it's sure to earn its place alongside its alternatives.

Other available men's shirt styles include pleated front tuxedo shirts and non-pleated front tuxedo shirts.
