Mens Dress Shirts:

The main characteristic of mens dress shirts is that they are either cotton, polyester, or some sort of cotton polyester mix. After that the only thing you need to worry about is the size, style, and color of the shirt. Lets take a further look below.

Fabric Attributes

Cotton - most breathable, most expensive, *most expensive and professional looking*, easily wrinkled

*(note that because this shirt wrinkles so easy it may look less professional by the end of the day)

Polyester - soft, shiny, not easily wrinkled, least expensive, least professional looking

Cotton/Polyester Mix - These shirts are also known as wrinkle free shirts and are most likely going to be the staple of your dress shirt wardrobe.

Shirt Styles

Styles can vary greatly in dress shirts. A shirt can have button up collars or flat collars. It can be slim fit or regular fit, and it can come in many different colors.

Some rules to remember:

1. Lined shirts look more professional the closer the lines.

2. Always choose a color that goes well with your suit color.

3. White is always a safe color to wear.
