Sounds racist.

Not really. There's no racist element to it at all. "White trash" would be (though that term is actually racist against non-whites, since the implication inherent in it is that white people are supposed to be better than whatever standard is being implied), but just "trash" carries no racist connotations.

It is, however, classist.

I'm not sure how familiar you are with adulting, but most people don't buy tuxes, they tend to rent them afaik. Like a wedding dress, there aren't many occasions to wear a tux. And keep in mind if you're a groomsman (the other big time you'd wear a tux outside of your own wedding), it usually needs to match the other groomsmen so you're not even getting a second use there.

Indeed. A suit? Sure. You can wear a suit for lots of stuff. A tux? Not so much. Unless you're making a habit of going to balls, a tux is really only useful for your own wedding, and that's ideally a one-time thing (or maybe once every decade or two if you like renewing vows).
