The pleated front tux shirts are one of those things that you hate or you simply wear because that is what the salesperson at the rental shop told you was what they had.

I have never and will never wear a pleated front tux shirt. I was taught that simple equals elegant and timeless. Pleats are just to close to the ruffles of the '70's

Wing collar or stand-and-fall collar is a bit of "what ever".

But what differentiates a tux shirt from a dress shirt is that a tux shirt has no buttons. The front uses studs and the cuffs, cufflinks that match the studs. (keep your fancy birthday cufflinks for your French cuffed dress shirts.)
