Modern Formals Inc — Local services in Middletown

Had the pleasure of working with Sal, the owner, multiple times to outfit my sons during their high school years, from formals to proms to talent shows. You won’t find anyone who knows the trade like Sal. He’s a true expert. He can take a look at a gentleman and tell you his exact fit. He’s efficient, decisive and timely, and the quality of his products are top notch. Not to mention he has a dynamite personality and is just all-around great to work with. My son had a Gatsby themed event for his senior prom and Sal immediately said, “I’ve got him,” when I had no idea how to execute. My son’s look was the talk of the event. Can’t rave enough about the service we’ve received . Highly recommend Modern Formals...

Suit looks good. Walked in slightly confused, was asking the guy fitting me what exactly was going on and Sal comes up to me and begins being extremely disrespectful. “This is how you do it, do you want it to look right or to look wrong you can leave with no suit for all I care”. To add onto this, they gave me the wrong tie and Sal tried to tell me that it was the right one when it was a completely different color. He then made us search for the correct tie then SNATCHED it out of my hands to pack it up. I would not expect such a beautiful looking place to have an owner with such a disrespectful ego. Make sure you know exactly what’s going and don’t risk asking...

I’m typically all about supporting a local, family owned business but Modern Formal is a definite exception. Even though the guys were “fitted” two months before the wedding, they all looked like they were wearing their fathers’ suits when they tried on their rentals two days before the wedding. They were given tuxedo pants even though suit pants were requested. To make matters worse, the tux pants didn’t match the color of the suit jacket. The “white” dress shirts were yellowed and should be thrown out. Sal did his best to accommodate but it wasn’t perfect and this was completely avoidable. There’s no reason a wedding party should have to scramble...
