Edwina -- On the Subject of Tuxedos

[Edwina's Secretary]

Edwina Muses on Tuxedos

First…there is a variety of tuxedos.

The classic black and white for evening wear as exquisitely modeled by our Ms. Ritzy….
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid75/p0b5372ff3ecea533f0fddfb188ffc7dd/fb48306d.jpg

Fashion Maven’s personal favorite…the gray and white…usually reserved for morning or early afternoon occasions….
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid38/p50edd9f40891de720939b2abb87a3ddb/fd1067b8.jpg

New on the fashion front is the camel hair tuxedo….divinely donned by Ms. Nellie (who seems to be on her back in all her photos! hmmmmmm)
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid74/p894bdbb219399ed8cd588ecb776bf9d2/fb64110d.jpg

And for the fashion challenged, we have Beastie Boy in his short sleeve tux….appropriate perhaps for Bermuda?
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid67/p1288ead6704a522b2791b634039a3d96/fbcb913c.jpg

And to accessorize the camel hair tuxedo Fashion Maven recommends a hat of pheasant feathers (yummy!) in shades of tan and brown with just a hint of black for sophistication!

[captain]

How gorgeous!!!!

Love the Short Sleeved Tux ......

[neko1]

How about one sleeve up and one sleeve down?!:p
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid51/pe9e48a07eb6396d298be911df66fb73f/fc9eb319.jpg

[Logan]

Too cute!!! :D

How about more coverage in the back and less in the front?;)

[krazyaboutkatz]

These are all such cute fashions. :) I love them all. :D

[jazzcat]

How cute.

I never noticed a short sleeved tux before - that definitely is a "he's his own man" kind of statement.

[shais_mom]

CUTE!!!!
LOL

[Kater]

This is a GREAT thread! Brings a smile to my face. :D So many great variations on a classic!

What a beautiful kitty!!!!

Leg warmers ............... :D :D :D

[bisi.cat]

And the most amazing thing about this latest fashion is, no matter what the cats are wearing, they always look GORGEOUS...oh, I am so green with envy about this!!!;)

Nellie loves this idea, however she insists that the hat will be made out of silky and the finest mouse fur quality available...she just left to find some of this fur...(oh oh hopefully that doesn't mean another mouse hunt through the house for her humans...;) )

She very much appreciated the idea of the pheasant feathers and recommended the black feather to be a magpie feather...she will investigate here as well...

I am so relived that she already wears her tuxie, otherwise she may asks to go for a squirell fur coat...:eek: :eek: :eek:

[Barbara]

Tigris says he won't stop to wear his camouflage overall no matter what fashion says!

Boys:mad:

As neat as the tuxedo look is, there is nothing like a well-tigered kitty coat! There is something very "animal urges" about the tiger coat....grrr...yumm...Eduardo actually has a little of both, I think, and I love the "rolled up sleeve" look - a man ready for action!!http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid67/p1288ead6704a522b2791b634039a3d96/fbcb913c.jpg

The legwarmers are lovely! I'm thinking a classic twist soon to be popular again at the exercise classes. Who says you can't sweat and look great?http://mystorage.homestead.com/SleepyPose.jpg

And Samantha....I've never seen you from behind...what a beauty, or as the song says "baby got back!" :) ;) http://users.adelphia.net/~mandzsawyer/images/samback.jpg (and I love the beauty mark on your neck)


And who is this newcomer on the fashion scene? What a doll!
http://purrfectpets.homestead.com/TuxWithTie.jpg

And the "off the shoulder" look will always be a classic on the Paris runways! Love the asymmetrical bowling pin look! For a minute there, I thought this was the famous "Scooter" pose!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid51/pe9e48a07eb6396d298be911df66fb73f/fc9eb319.jpg

And Nellie! What greater testament to clothing comfort than to pull off a full-out tummy up backyard nap! I can't wait to see that special hat!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid74/p894bdbb219399ed8cd588ecb776bf9d2/fb64110d.jpg

And finally Edwina, what can I say? The stylish makeup, particularly the bold brush of "nose liner" is only a look Ms Edwina could create! Such style, poise and grace! Your twist on the white shirt, replacing with an ermine-like sweather...oooh la la! Tres chic, or should I say Tres cat!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid38/p50edd9f40891de720939b2abb87a3ddb/fd1067b8.jpg


Fashion show and commentary provided by Mz Ritzy, sporting her classic black and white....with the "diamond cravat" and single white eyebrow lash...
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid75/p0b5372ff3ecea533f0fddfb188ffc7dd/fb48306d.jpg


Now, everyone sing
"I'm too sexy for my fur
too sexy for my paws
too sexy for my tail
toooooo sexy"

[ChrisH]

What a wonderful thread!:D Love it!!:D :D

[HayleyRosie]

I love the short sleeve tuxie but I'm not too sure they would be comfortable here in Newfoundland during our cold winter season. I think the full sleeve tuxie would be much more comfortable.

[Randi]

This is Pjevs joining the tuxedo club. He lives in out backyard. :)

JJJ# is unhappy that you dint post hi white sleeve Tuxedo! I told him that it was an oversight and JJJ3 still loves him. See photo below!

[catmandu]

To the immmediate right of the Siamese , the adorable great grey and white!

[Kona & Oreo's mom]

What a fantastic fashion show, everyone! The pictures and narration are wonderful! :D

[catlover4ever]

"I'm too sexy for my fur, too sexy for my paws, too sexy for my tail, toooooo sexy"

"Help, I've fallen off my chair, and I can't get up" :D :D

OMG, this thread has given me one of the best laughs of my lilfetime.

Figaro (AKA Mr. Figs) wanted to get in on the action.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid74/pc0d70a3eefddde7594eba4ab47e9162e/fb65f7cb.jpg

Here's to the Club Tuxedo:p

[Edwina's Secretary]

Tigris....not to worry! Albeit for regrettable reasons.....camouflage is very "IN" this year. So you are right in style!

Pjevs...thanks for showing how even the "full of figure" can look fabulous in formal wear!

Nellie....love your hat idea! Here's another..for those times you feel like being a little funky?
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid76/pa7e259c5220784b6d99e14161c56a0ac/fb43b946.jpg
(note the feathers!)
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid37/p35bced0b35dbceef168463f93f537f58/fd174788.jpg

and who could forget....the Canadian version of the classic tux...worn with a certain laisezaller by JJJ3?

VERY STYLISH, MS EDWINA!!!

You are always a delight to the eyes...and this time really very funky...YEAH!!!
:D

[gini]

I am sitting here grinning from ear to ear. What a fun thread! Elegant, simply elegant - all of them!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Peanut wants to know....what about the tortie tux?
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid39/p731fdc3ac0bf448b6e68866b399951e0/fd0baf66.jpg

Much more interesting than the plain solid color tuxes. :D

[Edwina's Secretary]

what about the tortie tux

You refer to the variegated tweed tuxedo? An excellent choice for fall/winter fashion! Gives a certain professorial look -- especially appropriate for the college bound! :D ;) :D

[kimlovescats]

Now that is the kind of hotel amenity that I like!!!!!:D

Hmmm -here am I asking myself: how about just a white scarf close to the chin?

How Continental! How suave! How sophisticated!

[cubby31682]

You can't see Cubbys tux very well but he has one on.

[jazzcat]

Okay, Ripley became extremely jealous when he heard about this thread so I had to include him.

How about a big ruffled shirt tux - maine coon style.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid73/pc630f659b38d7834dbf1f8024e876327/fb7e1996.jpg

Now to console master Ripley on being left out.

[RedHedd]

Ok, so she looks more like a Furby in a ruffled shirt .... I still think she looks cute! :D (That's Mishi in the background :) )

Oh, Master Ripley, to leave out such a glorious specimen of fashionable fur...twas not intentional and you are a magnificent example of the often coveted "angora tux", would you not agree, ms Edwina?

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid71/p56074ef7119bd70db58931ae2c27000a/fb8e5abf.jpg
And of course, the "coat of many colors" calico angora tuxedo....the 'unshorn' look to Ms Peanut's "every hair in place" smoothie tortie...all classics!http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid39/p731fdc3ac0bf448b6e68866b399951e0/fd0baf66.jpg and sweet-mitted MIlly..http://www.jennykenwright.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/images/PT4.jpg sporting the classic trimmed version

but of course! The fur ascot will never go out of fashion!

[Miss Meow]

I want a tux too!

Is a Meezer a reverse-image tux, like a film negative??? :)

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid31/p3786425caeebacb6fc6cf9dd5d0bae5b/fd49bdd9.jpg

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid61/pfc883f644fa0d733f84cf14a0d730dc0/fc363f82.jpg

[krazyaboutkatz]

I think that my Sunny is also wearing a white scarf close to the chin but he also has a milk mustache too.
:)

Sunny and Cirrus, I just LOVE the look on your faces!! Can you tell your mom to give you kisses on your sweet little noses from me - and Fister sends headbumpies. :) ;)

[Kona & Oreo's mom]

Kona is pleased to join Peanut and Milly as a Tortie Tux:

As you can see in her close-up, she (like Lady Edwina) loves to wear dark "nose liner." :)

[catmandu]

WOW!!! I never thought that there were so many variations on the Tuxedo Cats . JJJ3 thanks youfor posting him , taht is one of his best photos dripping with Cat Titude! All the tuxies are so grat to see , I am getting color copies when I go to Business Depot!

[catlover4ever]

I had to come back and include Miss Tucker with her ever dainty paw sporting the gray tux.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid74/pcf78c93fad0fb85005393c7bee1eb068/fb65b2d3.jpg

Oooh, the meezer reverse-image tux screams "I want coffee with cream, pleez!"

And Kylie, it takes a special kitty to pull off the classic "all white on white" tuxedo, bravo, brave kitty,and you wear it well!

[Edwina's Secretary]

How could I forget the SUEDE TUXEDO???????

I love the way fashion these days varies a classic theme -so creative, so full of ideas.

Milano, Paris and New York -watch out!

I'm thinking that the cats on Pettalk should start their own version of "What Not to Wear" - I think it would probably be more enjoyable than the real one! :cool:

OOps...forgot about Pumpkin and her orangie tux:

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Tubby prefers the Regis look of all one color, with just a touch of color at his throat and his stomach - like a bow tie and cumberband.

And in honor of this thread, today's "twins" prove that basic black is always a classy compliment to the classic black and white!. Rocky, that yin and yang nose is SO you!

[moosmom]

I can't WAIT to get home and post pictures of Lil Eli with his "skunk" look tux. This is a great thread! Leave it to Lady Edwina, Fashion Goddess, to come up with the idea!

[2kitties]

YEA!!! My boys are cats of the day! They look so wonderful. Thanks for posting this here tuxluvr!

Taz would like me to point out that he has 3 white hairs on his neck, so, technically, he qualifies!

Nellie, perhaps this sweet fellow has left his tux coat at home, and is only wearing the tux shirt and pants??? :cool:

[smokey the elder]

Here are some variants of tuxedos I've had or fostered. First Buddy, of the blue-gray afternoon wear.

[smokey the elder]

Spicey, a foster from 2002. He's got a cute little milk mustache and nose stripe.

[smokey the elder]

Spliffy was adopted early this year. She is a stunning calico tux.

[smokey the elder]

Mittens was a polydactyl Tuxie I fostered in 2001 and 2002.

[smokey the elder]

Boots is a kitten, 5 months old, and needs a home. :D

[smokey the elder]

Bashful is a sweet tiger tux, Boots' sister. Anyone need a kitten??
