Men's Dress Shirts - Knowing What Color To Wear


 
Fashion & Cosmetics,Online Shopping,Recreation & Leisure
Men's dress shirts have become a staple as far as men's fashion is concerned. And today, having a perfectly fitted dress shirt is important for every man. Proper sleeves length, right collar type and measured cuffs are essentials for that perfect shirt.

However, the color of the dress shirt is also as important as the fit. The first thing any person will notice is the color of what you're wearing. And in a crowded room, your choice of dress shirt color will either help you stand out of the crowd or blend in as a part of it. That is why it is just as important to find that perfect color of dress shirt for yourself as getting the right fit. And doing so will definitely be a challenge.

Actually, there are just two main things that you need to put in your mind when choosing the proper dress shirt color. First, know the color shades and color combination that will compliment you. Next, but also as important, know how these colors frame you in the environment you are in. Everything else are just minor guidelines.

Your Dress Shirt and You

The dress shirt you are wearing, not just the type of it but also the color, should be able to compliment your body features. Complexion, hair color and eye color are the three main indicators when choosing the color of fabric for the shirt. Unfortunately, most men choose color based on what they are used to, what colors are available or by being dictated of what the fashion trend is. All of which are big no-nos when it comes to choosing what you'll wear. A man's skin tone and hair color should be the basis of what color one should wear; with the eye color serving as a wildcard in case it is greatly contrasting with the two. The relationship between these three factors will determine which contrast category a man falls into: high contrast, low contrast or medium contrast.

High Contrast. Simply put, these are men with hair color that is a stark contrast with their skin tone. One example is a man with black hair but very pale skin. For men with these features, the key to looking good is to mimic this color difference in their clothing with the contrast in their facial zone. In general, light colored shirts with dark suits will greatly compliment the man with high contrast. Dark navy suit with white shirt or charcoal suit with ice blue shirt are examples of color combination for them. High contrast men are also always complimented by strong ties that can stand out from the shirt.

Low Contrast. These are men with muted appearance. Light hair and ligh skin stone is the most common variant. Redheads and bald men also fall into this category. These men are the exact opposite of the high contrast men and should go for a more monochromatic look because strong contrasting outfit will surely overpower their muted tones. In general, these men should wear more dark suits over earth tone or dark blue shirts. When wearing lighter colored and tan suits, low contrast men should stay with lighter dress shirts. The choice for necktie should be done with care to avoid them standing out too much and drawing attention from your face.

Medium Contrast. If you don't fall under the two previous categories, you are definitely a medium contrast guy. Common members of this group include brown skinned men with dark hair and lighter skinned men with gray or white hair. With very wide selection of facial tones and hair colors, it's kind of hard for these men to have a specific guidelines on what color to wear. Most men do not fall exactly in the middle, but rather lean toward the high or low contrast. Dark haired, brown skinned guys can get away with subtle monochromatic combinations. The light skinned ones, on the other hand, can do away with contrasting colors, especially if their eyes or anther feature compliment the color combination chosen. Though it may be hard to categorize medium contrast men, they do enjoy the fact that they can have the best of both worlds. However, they should be very careful when venturing too far in one direction.

The Colors of the Seasons

Aside from ones body features, what season it is will greatly help a man when deciding the color of what he'll wear. This is because one should take into consideration the mood of the environment and how its colors can affect the overall look of an outfit. Comfort is also an issue when deciding what color to wear in different seasons. For spring, lightweight fabrics with colors like pink, lavenders and lighter shades of blue are the perfect choices. Light and bold colors are good options when it is summer and very hot. Gold stripes, red checks and a wide variety of blues are some of the good examples. Heavier fabrics with earth tones are the color for the fall season. Lastly, during winters, dark colors and heavy fabrics like flannels are in.

It is very important to know that having the perfect outfit will make your look good infront of many people. That is why knowing what to buy for yourself is the crucial step. But still, nothing beats the good ol' confidence to boost that good looks and good style you have.

Another tip is to buy clothes from stores like UpscaleDeals.com who offers Pal Zileri shirts for all season.
