Men world wide recognize the fact that a suit should usually be worn in combination with a shirt and tie. The problem with most men is that they do not know how to match the patterns of these various garments.
This article was written to help men of all ages and all professions determine how to match up their shirt, tie, and suit patterns. Read below to find practical tips and examples you can use to make your wardrobe the best it can be.
The combination of different patterns, similar patterns, and the two used in harmony can all be used to pattern coordinate a suit. Examples of each of these situations are provided below.
The same patterns can be matched together with all parts of the suit. However, this should always be done with patterns of differing sizes. For instance you could wear a pinstripe shirt with narrow stripe separation and a tie with broad sized stripes.
Two ways can be used to match up differing patterns. The first way is to wear differing patterns of the proportion. An example of this would be to wear a tie with large check patterns and a shirt with broad pinstripes.
Another way to match disparate shapes is to use similar colors. An example of this would be to wear a tie with blue circular patterns and a shirt with blue pinstripes.
Combining all different styles is not a out of the question, but it can be a bit perplexing in nature. An example of this type of style would be to wear a gray pinstripe suit with a wide gray circular patterned tie, and a white shirt with gray pinstripes.
Remember to always think of each piece of clothing as a smaller piece of your wardrobe and you will never go wrong. In closing I'd like to wish you luck with your next wardrobe purchase. - 15995
