1. WHITE SHIRT IS MUST HAVE!
The white shirt is used by stylish men with countless creativity.
On a fairly wide color palette, white shirts still have a certain place.
2. RULES FOR WEARING SHIRT AND TIE
The end of the tie matches the waistband: Perfect when the pointed end of the tie just touches the waistband of the pants (provided the waistband is located right or slightly above the hip bone).
Brushing the base of the tie knot: After tying the tie, use your hands to smooth it to create two straight and sturdy wavy bases at the base of the tie.
Tie properly: Tighten gently so that the knot fits the collar, not revealing space under the collar.
Fixing the tie: The bar will be installed from the wearer’s right side, fixing the tie to the body of the shirt in front of the sternum.
Check the neck: The collar should fit comfortably when you put a finger on either side of the neck without feeling tight.
Make a mark: Western men like to make a difference by adding their favorite characters on their shirts.
3. HOW TO MIX PATTERNS
Medium striped shirt (Bengal-striped) + Solid dark tie, small pattern
Thin striped plaid shirt (Windowpane) + Patterned tie highlights the striped color
Woven shirt + dark tie with stripes of the same color as the shirt
Checkered shirt + sturdy, dark tie with small patterns
Multi-striped plaid shirt (glen-plaid) + Thick striped tie accentuates the plaid
Fine-striped shirt + crochet tie
Shirts with outstanding colors are not easy to mix and match but help you look more stylish.
Choosing the color of pants to coordinate with your shirt also says a lot about your personality and fashion preferences.
The balance between a patterned shirt and solid colored pants or vice versa is very important.
4. LEARN FROM OTHERS
A shirt may be the most basic item that every gentleman owns.
5. GENERAL RULES
Men’s acumen in dressing is most clearly shown in the way they match a shirt with a tie.
– Graphic combination: red tie with white shirt or contrasting collar gives the wearer a powerful and strong look.
– To coordinate with a skinny suit, boldly replace the regular shirt with a striped shirt, combined with a small tie.
– The tie pattern should not overwhelm the pattern on the shirt – Always wear a tie when wearing a blue shirt with a white collar or add a stylized look when combining with a sweatshirt.
– Except for casual styles (horizontal shirt length and length not exceeding the hip bone) or crochet style shirts, shirts look best when neatly `tucked in`.
– Choose a collar according to your face structure.
