That is the only way to wear a tuxedo properly! The suspenders (braces) are buttoned in an they help the pants (trousers) hang correctly. The cummerbund should be worn semi-tight and with pleats up. It is put on after the braces are in place and it covers the waistband. If you choose to wear a vest, you should also wear braces even though they will be hidden.
