A shirt can be paired with a suit, or a blended shirt mainly made of cotton or wool. Formal shirts must be a single color, white is an option. In addition, blue, gray, brown, and black can also be considered; formal shirts are generally better without any patterns. Thin vertical striped shirts can also be worn in ordinary business activities, but do not match them with vertical striped suits.
The collar types of shirts are mostly square collar, short collar and long collar. When choosing a shirt, you should take into account your face shape, neck length, and tie knot size, and don’t make the contrast too great. Shirts with stand-up collars, wing collars and different-color collars are not suitable for matching with formal suits. Note that prints, plaids, and patterns with characters, animals, plants, text, buildings, etc. are not formal shirts.
Things to note when matching a shirt with a suit:
1. Button your clothes. When wearing a suit, all buttons on the shirt must be fastened. Only unbutton your shirt when not wearing a tie.
2. Collect the hem. When wearing a long-sleeved shirt, tuck the hem evenly into the waistband of your pants.
3. The size fits. Except for casual shirts, shirts should not be too short or too baggy. The collar and bust should be moderately tight, and the hem should not be too short. When the top button is buttoned, two fingers can be inserted, and the neck does not feel squeezed, and the shirt is the right size.
At work, you can temporarily take off your suit jacket and wear a long-sleeved shirt and tie.
Men’s shirts have undergone some changes in recent years. The traditional shirt design removes the lapels and leaves the stand-up collar part, which becomes a stand-up collar shirt. The height dimension of the stand-up collar is slightly different from the stand-up collar part of the lapel. The stand-up collar is more exquisite in production and the lining is more straight.
Wearing a stand-up collar shirt without a tie makes people feel upright, neat, simple, relaxed and casual. Men wearing stand-up collar shirts always make people look more culturally special. But if it is a formal occasion, such as an important meeting, signing ceremony, ceremonial meeting, etc., try to wear a lapel shirt and tie to show solemnity.
There are many types of shirts. Whether it is a suit for formal occasions or a casual shirt for vacation, shirts are inseparable from everywhere. Which shirt to wear on any occasion and how to wear it will give people a completely different impression. Understanding the texture of a shirt, how to choose it, how to wear it, and how to match it with a tie are basic common sense that modern people must know.
