Better Business Bureau’s update on closures of formal wear stores

By BBB Atlanta & NE Georgia. August 30, 2023.

In a sudden and unexpected move, several formal wear retail stores across the country closed their doors, leaving employees without work and customers without their expected orders.

As of August 29, 2023, Savvi Formalwear has failed to respond to complaints filed by consumers with the Better Business Bureau. 

BBB has received recent complaints from consumers who have been left without the products they paid for, coupled with the inability to get a response from the companies at the center of these complaints.

According to Savvi Formalwear, LLC’s website, the stores affected by this closure are the stores that were owned and operated by Tip Top Tux LLC (TTT, LLC), including Dapper & Dashing (MN), Nedrebo’s (WI), Al’s Formal Wear (TX, CO), American Commodore (OH), Dream Dress (IA), Anya Bridal (GA), Tip Top Tux (IA, KS, NE, SD) and ONLY the Atlanta Savvi Formalwear stores.

TTT, LLC was the owner of the Atlanta Savvi Formalwear stores. All other Savvi Formalwear stores are independently owned and unaffiliated with TTT, LLC.

Specifically, TTT, LLC, the owner of the Atlanta Savvi Formalwear stores, filed for bankruptcy on August 11, 2023, in the Northern District of Georgia. 

Those with monetary claims against the business are advised to obtain a Proof of Claim form by writing to: United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia 75 Ted Turner Dr.  SW Atlanta, GA 30303  Case number 23-57716-jrs should be entered on the form. 

BBB tips:  

  • Call your credit card company immediately and file a dispute on the credit card charge until more information becomes available from the company. 
  • Collect receipts, proof of purchase, and other relevant documents or materials to help you prepare for your requested resolution.
  • Follow updates on government actions and customer advice on Savvi Formalwear’s Business Profile on BBB.org
