Meet Wu Chien Shiung, famous physicist who overcame prejudice to prove that she could be anything she wanted.

When Wu Chien Shiung was born in China 100 years ago, girls did not attend school; no one considered them as smart as boys. But her parents felt differently. Naming their daughter 'Courageous Hero,' they encouraged her love of learning and science.

This engaging biography follows Wu Chien Shiung as she battles sexism at home and racism in the United States to become what Newsweek magazine called the 'Queen of Physics' for her work on how atoms split. Along the way, she earned the admiration of famous scientists like Enrico Fermi and Robert Oppenheimer and became the first woman hired as an instructor by Princeton University, the first woman elected President of the American Physical Society, the first scientist to have an asteroid named after her when she was still alive, and many other honours.

Sized Up, Still great!
My son typically requires a 3x TALL, so I sized up one (4x) but had it gone to a 5x that might have been even better. For reference he is 6 foot tall, 300 lbs, and very broad shouldered (think lineman 🤣) However, the quality and print were so great! He opted for a chain instead of the bowtie because he did a bow tie last year, but that was decent as well. For the price, this is a GREAT buy.

Solid tuxedo tied included
Color: Red, Size: Medium
It looks so sharp! Sleeves were too long for my son but they were on his jacket last year too. It comes with a solid already tied tuxedo tie.

Fits great and looks amazing
Color: Black, Size: Small
This tuxedo jacket is definitely worth the price. I bought this for my son and the size, sleeve length and cut were perfect. We used the size guide and it was spot on. The jacket doesn’t wrinkle easy and is such a beautiful print on the jacket.

Quality & fit (medium for tall slim build)
Color: Wine Red, Size: Medium
Ordered for prom instead of paying $250 to rent nearly the exact same suit at a local store. I ordered a Medium after the Large was too boxy on my son (6'1", 145lbs). Medium was perfect fit. He loved the look and quality. Very pleased. Returning the large jacket was easy as well. Highly recommend to others needing a jacket for prom, wedding, etc.
