Great Ways To Match Suit Patterns

Most men know that a suit needs to be matched with a tie, a dress shirt, and maybe even a nice pocket square. The only problem is they don't actually know how to match these things by color or pattern.

I wrote this article to help people understand the various nuances of pattern coordination. Read the following paragraphs and you will be on your way to a fantastic personal style.

The suit can be paired using combinations of the same patterns, combinations of different patterns, and the combination of various patterns working together. The next few paragraphs will provide tips on how to achieve these looks.

The first area we will discuss is the ability to match the same pattern together between garments. Wearing the same pattern is perfectly acceptable, but these patterns must be of different sizes to match properly. An example of this would be to wear a shirt with small check patterns and a tie with large check patterns.

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.

The second way to match two different patterns is to take two completely different sized patterns of the same color and match them to each other. For instance wearing a tie with large light blue checks would match light blue pinstripe suit jacket.

Incorporating all styles in harmony will really show off your own personal style and flow. For example you could wear a black suit with white pinstripes in combination with a black tie with white circles and a white shirt with large pinstripes.
