When it comes to dressing for more formal occasions, women have significantly more style options than men. We know that men will wear a variation of a shirt and suit. But when it comes to the finishing touch — the tie — some men aren’t quite sure how to choose a piece that would complement the other aspects of their ensemble.
To rise above the sea of blue blazers and brown dress shoes, follow these matching guidelines:
Color matching
Color is undoubtedly one of the most important factors to consider when choosing a tie. The color wheel is a handy tool that splits colors into warm and cool tones for you, resulting in an easy cheat sheet you can use. Or you can just keep the following basic color rules in mind:
Complementary colors are colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel. In the shirt-and-tie culture, the most common variation is a blue shirt with an orange tie.
Triad colors are three shades on the color wheel that are equidistant from each other. For example, a blue-yellow tie goes with a pink shirt, while a red-yellow tie goes with a blue shirt.
Analogue hues are the hues that are adjacent on the color wheel. They look quite similar. This is a simple approach for a newbie to expand their color range.
Pattern matching
If you want to go with a tie and a denim shirt. Then this is the perfect option for you. It gives you a fashionable look. A textured or patterned wool tie can be used with a denim shirt. It is best not to use a silk tie with these types of shirts.
In India, the plaid shirt is the most popular formal shirt. Most men like to wear plaid shirts. If you’re wearing a checked shirt, you can pair it with a plain or light crossover tie. A simple tie should never be combined with a checked shirt.
If you wear a shirt with a small check or a pattern, combine it with a basic or light-colored tie. If the shirt pattern or check is large, choose a tie with a smaller pattern or motif.
