I'll vote for the Miami Vice inspired Bright Blue tux. Hey, it worked for me. That's what I wore to my prom. A bright royal blue tux jacket, white dress shirt, and a matching royal blue cumberbund*, and a blue bowtie. And I think my pants were black.
Oh, and it went great with my royal blue Mountain Gear shoe/boots (which I also wore to graduation with my red cap and gown.. lol
Those shoe/boots were a pain to dance in though, so you want to be careful what you wear on your feet if you plan on dancing, and if you don't dance at your prom, then you are missing all the fun IMHO.

As for my date coordinating her clothes.. I'd have to say that wasn't a problem. My date wore a handmade dress by her mom (who was a dressmaker) so it worked out fine. I believe it was mostly black with a rose print of some kind??

I'll have to dig out my pictures.. Senior Prom was fun!
