The Art Of Co-Ordination

Patterns

Patterns can make you the butt of all office jokes or give you an interesting look.

The strongest authoritative professional clothing is no pattern – a solid color. Always remember solids last the longest. That’s why men look so elegant and handsome in no pattern, high contrast, and only two-color formalwear.

One of the "rules" for coordination of a suit, tie and dress shirt is "Two Plains and One Fancy.” For example, if you wear a solid suit and a solid shirt, you should not wear a solid tie. Select a tie with a pattern. But, if you wear a striped shirt, you should wear a solid tie with it, and a solid suit. And, if you wear a plaid suit, you should wear a solid shirt and a solid tie.

The fundamentals of mixing patterns require analyzing each pattern for:

Size

You can mix two or more patterns - just make certain that some of the colors in each match, and the patterns are not the same size or type. For example with a checkered shirt – try a tie with small patterns, and pair bright strong patterns with subtle ones.

Type or design

Note that suit patterns, such as a pinstripe or a subtle plaid, work almost like a solid since you have to be close to see the pattern.

Stripes on stripes? You can wear a stripe tie and a striped shirt if the scales are different. A fine-striped shirt goes perfectly well with a thick or Regimental striped tie.

Colors

Warm and cool: Select two warm colors with one cool or two cool with one warm to create dynamic harmony. Examples: navy suit, light blue shirt and red tie, or a yellow shirt, rust jacket and blue jeans.

Monochromatic: Can be all one color, or different shades, tones or tints of one color.

Neutral: Shades of white, black, gray or beige. Khaki pants, white shirt and a gray sweater are all neutrals. It may not be a dynamic look, but it is sophisticated.

Seasonal colors: Some colors are more appropriate at certain times of year than others. Like the pastels of yellow, are usually associated with summer, while autumn colors are rust, brown, green, and burgundy. Wearing rust in the summer looks out of place.
