There is no big difference between Tuxedo and suit. The two types of wears are designed in a way that you would think they are the same when you look from afar. I think we are all familiar with Tuxedos and suits. The major difference between the two is how they are designed and the traditional or common ways people wear the two. The presence of satin in Tuxedo is what actually differentiates it from suit.

In Tuxedos, you will see satin facing on the button, pocket trim, lapels and in the leg of the trousers, you would see a stripe of a well-layered satin. Another difference is how people wear the two. Suits are traditionally worn with long ties while Tuxedos are worn with bow ties. You use the ties depending on your choice. This does not mean you can not wear bow ties on suits or long ties on Tuxedo. Another thing is suits are more common to see on people but Tuxedo is used for rare occasions.
