I've never fully understood the difference between a suit, tuxedo, and blazer. I was looking at those items the same way I interpreted the colors. While a lass sees three different red shades, I see it as a single one. Anyway, thanks a lot for explaining the differences so well. I think it's already time to learn something new, lol. Since now, my mother used to order me formal suits from Gentleman's Guru https://www.gentlemansguru.com/. I'm starting to feel embarrassed when I can't make a difference and can't pick up a suit by myself.
