Which is the best formal shirt to buy?
There are quite a few formal shirts to choose from above. We've made sure we have selected only shirts that offer value for money, but also the best quality. By this, we don't mean cheap; we mean quality for the right price. Quality in men's formal shirts is essential - after all, as the name suggests, a formal shirt is designed and made to be worn for formal occasions, including business. You need it to be perfect, so that you can look your best. That's why we love the distinctly British style and quality of the TM Lewin shirts. Who can resist such luxury and refinement from one of the world's finest names in shirt making. See for example the exquisite TM Lewin formal white shirt in plain herringbone weave cotton. The herringbone weave will be sure to make this sure stand out - the herringbone weave gives a depth to the overall look that plain or smooth cotton simply can't match. Using herringbone weave cotton on a shirt can give it a subtle texture, a certain depth to the material, that in turn makes the most of light and reflection, making the shirt really stand out. Think of the weave as a kind of "parquet floor" pattern in the material. With lines cutting diagonally across each other, the light is reflected, and works especially well with a white or light coloured shirt, giving it a kind of sheen or glow. Plus this super soft cotton feels natural and soft on the skin, yet is thick enough to wear on cold winter days too. In addition, this shirt comes from a range from TM Lewin that have quite a wide, cutaway collar, known as the Windsor collar. This means you have extra room for a big fat tie knot! Or more technically speaking, the elegant Windsor knot or the fashionable 4 in hand knotted tie.
These white formal shirts will appeal to any man with an eye for elegance, quality and tailoring. A quality white shirt is simply a classic of men's tailoring, and an essential for any man's wardrobe. If you need to regularly look smart, whether for business or a formal occasion, then we suggest you need at least 2 or 3 white shirts in your wardrobe. A white shirt can fit perfectly with wearing pretty much any colour tie - whether it's patterned, striped, brightly coloured or subdued. So if you have a penchant for wild and wacky ties, a white shirt will give you that blank canvas to be able to choose just about any style or pattern. Plus a white shirt also goes well with all colours of suits, from the classic navy, grey and pinstripe, to more modern browns or lighter colours. The only other shirt colour that can close to matching the ubiquitous white shirt for elegance and versatility is a light blue shirt. But if you are looking for a white shirt with a touch of something different, then consider some of the subtle check white shirts available, or for a touch of class (and tailoring history) perhaps a white shirt with a cutaway collar, such as the Windsor collar, or a shirt made from a particular weave cotton, such as herringbone, for that extra shine and distinctive design flair.
What is the most effective shirt to wear with a vibrant coloured tie?
Naturally we're not able to state which shirt colours may complement a person the best - everyone has different tastes, and different complexions that may or may not suit particular colours. It's impossible even for us to say that there's just one single best colour shirt to consider. But what we can say is that, if you are into wearing decorative and colourful ties, or ones with vivid patterns, then you should try to choose plain shirts, rather than patterned, striped or checked. For the majority of work events, the standard, classic white shirt or perhaps a pale blue shirt can work as a wonderful blank canvas for you to add all kinds of other colours in your choice of neck tie.
