Get Shirty About This Situation!

Suits You Sir

Every man knows the importance of a good suit; the requirement that the jacket is the right fit and cut for your body shape, matching trousers, and a good pair of shoes. Theyare all important and vital when creating the total formalwear package. You might have different suits for different occasions. For example the suit you wear to a wedding would be different from what you wear to a funeral or an everyday suit that youwouldwear to aninterview.But there is an important component missing here from the suit: the formal shirt. When buying a suit as a package either made to measure or off the peg, how much effort do we put into selecting men’sformal shirts to match?

For Every Occasion

It is as important to select the right men’s formal shirts as it is to select the right jacket, trousers, waistcoat and shoes. Most of us would go for the standard slim fit white shirt, paying more attention to the outer garmentsthat make up of the suit as they are more obvious to the eye.For the more formal events that requirea tuxedo for example, again it is the suit that draws the eye and the attention of the person hiring with little attention paid to the quality of the shirt they will wear.

At the slightly more casual end of the market, it is difficult to know what to wear on a first date. Too formal and the girl in question might see you as a serious person unable to relax. Too casual and she might think you are not taking her or the date seriously enough. The following morning, so enraptured by the fun that you spent in her company, you realise that you have forgotten to iron a shirt for work! Time to wear last night’s shirt again. Smart casual shirts are the best of both worlds; suitable for a good night out where you want to look presentable for that special lady and equally suitable for a day at the office.

A Cut Above the Rest

Major designer labels such as Ralph Lauren, Hugo Boss and Calvin Klein, normally better known for their smart casual range, do have a large selection of slim fit shirts and men’s work shirts available to the UK market.So you needn’t invest in the rough fabric, stiff collar options that your parents and grandparents were expected to wear! It is clear that the formal men’s shirt is now as fashionable as his casual counterpart.

When you next decided to buy a new suit, your existing garments may not match so do consider whether you might need to buy several fashionable men’s formal shirtsto complete your new look.
