If you're REALLY talking about the formal dress thingie shown below, go to Brooks Brothers or some other long-standing purveyor of dress military uniforms.

USMC equivalents are all super backordered too. The Military-Tuxedo Complex strikes again!

That's why I prefer tuxedo t-shirts: for that semi-formal-casual look!

I've got one somewhere in my house, never taken out of the bag, it is yours if you want it...and if I can find it.

I ended up renting one from a tux place, it was close enough for government work and better quality too.
