The short answer: Go to a store that sells tuxedos. Most menswear places carry them. Alternatively, if you know your jacket and pants sizes, shop online for greater selection.
The longer answer: The most classic tuxedo would have one button and "peak" or "shawl" lapels. More modern variants might have two buttons and a "notch" lapel. Three buttons is too many.
Modern tuxedo vests are too high-cut. Black cummerbunds are preferable. Bow ties should be black and self-tying; clip-on bow ties are strictly for male strippers.
Naturally, the jacket and pants should be black. Midnight blue is also correct, but quite rare today. Off-white or ivory jackets are acceptable in the summer and in tropical climates.
The shirt should be white cotton. The collar can be turndown or wing; modern wing collars are shorter and less impressive than their detached-collar ancestors, so the turndown collar is advisable. The front can be pleated or piqué, which is a waffle-like weave of cotton. Cufflinks must be worn; studs should be worn unless the buttons are covered ("placket front.")
Shoes should be patent leather or highly polished ordinary leather. Pumps are the most traditional; oxfords are quite acceptable.
Suspenders should be worn to keep the pants at waist level. Black or white silk are traditional.
