Formal attires for men set them apart from the ordinary crowd and therefore every effort to stay

fashionable with the current trend is very important among the males. Dressing up right for the

occasion is very essential and with formal attires, men are always on the move by creating fashion

statements and yet remain grounded. To look good and yet fashionable, men need to look out to

implement these basic but most essential tips, while going for formal attires. With men's formal wear,

it is all about keeping them simple and neat. Follow these tips to look smart in your formal attire and

also know about the do's and don'ts.

1. Always go for shirts with colors that are monochromatic and lighter in shades. They tend to

highlight your upper body and also bring attention to the body as a whole. Colors such as whites,

beige, browns and even blue looks good on men and can be paired with a darker shade pants.

Remember to stay away from bright colors and the trick is to keep them lighter in shade as possible.

You can bring life to the shirts by sporting on thin vertical stripes, checks and other patterns. Keep the

pattern in line with your overall wear, so that it does not stand like the odd one out.

2. It is important to make an important decision with tie as well. Many of the men give it the least

importance and fail to create the right style statement. If you are sporting a bright color tie with

strips, keep the color of your shirt neutral or of the same hue of the tie, so that it does not go over the

board. Baby pinks and indigo color goes well with any formal attire.

3. Pants for formal attires can be in darker or lighter shades and should match the color of the

overcoat. Do not attempt to sport something different as it would turn to be a mis- match. Blacks and

browns look best and so do lighter shade of grey and beige. It can be pine-stripped or have shiny

stripes in a lighter shade. It accentuates the attire on the whole and looks elegant to be worn for any

formal occasion.

4. Always try to wearclothes that fit your body perfectly. Most of the formal attires that you buy from

the shops come with a good fit. If you find them lousy, they can be altered as well. Some of the shops

have in-house tailors who would alter the clothes and most of the times and it is the pants that give

away a lot of trouble, either it is too long or a bit loose.

Other accessories like belts and scarves can add up a glam note and complete the formal look.

Dressing up is more important but would fail, if you do not carry it with right attitude. Sport a

confident smile and look your best with formal attires on any occasion. It is the safest bet to look

stylish and to be in fashion.

The formal or dress shirt is an integral cog in the well-oiled machine that is the fashion

conscious mans wardrobe. Despite many variations, the construction of the dress shirt

has remained relatively consistent since its conception and evolved from a design that

was originally an item of mens underwear until the turn of the twentieth century.

The correct shirt selection can add character and individuality to an otherwise utilitarian

office outfit, so careful consideration is advised when the time comes to refresh your

work attire. Although hard and fast rules are rarely adhered to religiously by the modern

man of style, certain guidelines especially when it comes to occasion and fit are at

the very least worthy of attention.

The numerous variables in terms of detail, though somewhat unusual for such a classicpiece, provide an understated depth and mark the evolution of the garments illustrious

lifespan. Understanding the nuances and specifics of this menswear mainstay (as with

any item of clothing) is fundamental in making an educated investment and matching

with other key pieces.

According to menswear commandment number one, when it comes to making decisions

of the sartorial persuasion, knowledge is king.

The Collar

The collar is one of the formal shirts more prominent features and unless youre a fan of

the television football pundit look, is an aspect not to be overlooked. As well as

indicating the formality of the shirt, the collars almost eye-level position is difficult to

miss and can therefore easily make or break an otherwise carefully curated ensemble.

Although there are several other types of collar such as the club, tab and contrast collar,

the images below and following sections outline the more common examples:

IMAGE COURTESY OF MR PORTER

Point Collar (Left)

The most prevalent collar style, the forward or straight point collar is cut using straight

lines and with a relatively small spread. It is the design most associated with the

traditional mens dress shirt.

Its balanced and neutral appearance exudes confident sophistication, whilst

it remains versatile enough to blend comfortably with both formal and casual attire.

The point collars adaptable style means that it is suitable for office rookies and Savile

Row aficionados alike, works well with or without a tie (depending on the occasion) and

aligns with all manner of suit lapels.

Wear with a traditionally cut suit and small tie knot (such as the four-in-hand) for a

refined yet composed look or dress down with a blazer, twill trousers and loafers for a

more off-duty approach.

COTTON RICH QUICK IRON CLASSIC COLLAR PLAIN SHIRT

Spread Collar (Centre)

Also known as the cutaway or Windsor collar, the spread collar comes in various widths

and angles, revealing more of the upper shirt or tie than the aforementioned point

collar.

Due to the distance between the collar points (some almost horizontal), the spread collar

is rarely worn without a tie and is reserved for business/formal dress only. Gaining

popularity in recentyears, the spread collars width complements those with a slim build

by balancing the bodys vertical lines.

A more pronounced spread collar, such as the Londoner, can make an effortless yet

elegant statement whilst providing the perfect frame for larger knot ties such as

the full Windsor.

Dress for the city by matching with a modern cut suit, single colour textured tie, pocket

square and black Oxford shoes.

CHESTER BARRIE MARCELLA SPREAD COLLAR SHIRT WHITE

Button-Down Collar (Right)

As the name suggests, the button-down collar is attached directly to the shirt body by

way of two small buttons and can be worn with or without a tie.

Naturally suited to more casual surroundings, the button-down was initially introduced

by Brooks Brothers in 1896 based on the sports shirts worn by polo players.

The least formal of the collar family, the current trend is to wear without a tie and with

the shirt buttoned to the top (although the collar itself is rarely left unbuttoned).

Channel the styles laid back aesthetic by combining with chinos and chukka boots.

The Cuffs

Often overlooked, the shirt cuffs (along with collar) are one of the few features visible

when coupled with a suit jacket.An effective choice demonstrates a keen eye for

detailand completes a polished and perfectly proportioned appearance.

Again, today we will be outlining the current more common examples:
http://out.fashionbeans.com/johnlewisshirtshttp://out.fashionbeans.com/johnlewisshirtshttp://out.fashionbeans.com/johnlewisshirtshttp://out.fashionbeans.com/johnlewisshirts


17/42

IMAGE COURTESY OF MR PORTER

Button Or Barrel Cuff (Left)

The button cuff is the traditional and most popular cuff type and the basic single button

style is commonly seen in high street menswear stores. Consisting of a single cuff thatwraps around the wrist and buttons into place, this functional option can offer square,

round or angled corners and some versions provide an additional adjacent button for

adjustment.

The more formal barrel cuff has two or three vertical buttons (and buttonholes), rather

than the single, and is therefore longer its extra fastenings provide a snug fit around

the wrist.

Shirts with barrel cuffs also often come equipped with a gauntlet button; a small button

between the cuff and cuff opening allowing for a better fit around the forearm.

Cocktail Or Turnback Cuff (Centre)

Made famous by Sean Connery in the James Bond film Dr No, the turnback cuff is one

of the least well-known styles, although its combination of elegance and functionality is

now thought to be making something of a comeback.

The cocktail or turnback cuff is essentially a double length two-button barrel cuff that

then folds back on itself, while the corners are usually rounded to avoid any snagging in

the jacket sleeve.


18/42

The turnback cuff walks the line between the more casual button cuff and the formal

French cuff, with its striking style providing a flamboyant and unique edge to the most

monotone of working wardrobes.

French Cuff (Right)

This classic dress shirt cuff folds back around the wrist and is fastened by cufflinks

rather than buttons. Although they are ceremonial in style, the French cuff is not

reserved for black tie events only and is perfectly acceptable daily wear in many

workplaces.

Often only provided with high end and custom shirts, this is perhaps not the obvious

choice for the limited budget, especially when coupled with the necessity of cufflinks. It

is worth, however, having at least one such shirt in the locker, as nothing pairs more

perfectly with a beautifully tailored suit and silk tie.

Material And Fit

The dress shirt is manufactured using a number of different materials dependent on the

shirts design and function. Broadcloth and Poplin (available in a range of thread

counts) are essentially the same type of fabric; the simple over and under weaveprovides a smooth and formal shirting. Twill is a more detailed and elaborate textile,

with its diagonal and herringbone patterns and heavier material regularly used in

constructing checked shirts.

Oxford shirts are a less formal option that should have a home in every mans collection

their thick and sturdy cloth is generally used in combination with the button-down

collar.

Although many modern shirts are now sized small, medium, large, etc. it is certainly

good practice to know your measurements. The neck measurement is particularly

important when purchasing more formal shirts, where one finger should fit comfortably

between the collar and neck.


19/42

A more fitted style around the torso is also more flattering and practical ballooning

flaps of cloth above the waistband are not so appealing. The general consensus on cuffs

is that they should just touch the hinge of the wrist or protrude around half an inch from

the jacket sleeve.

Final Word

Whether you have ambitions onbecoming the admin departments very own Don

Draper, the local cocktail bars 007 or are just preparing for a formal event, a little inside

information on the backbone of British menswear can go a long way.

Basics tips on formal wear

Proper formal attire for a party or an event may differ depending on one's position and the time in which theoccasion takes place. It is typical to dress formally in case of family or the guest of honor, semiformal forrelatives, and informally for an acquaintance or friends.

When dressed western style, formal attire for men will be a cutaway coat during the day and swallow-tailedcoat and tuxedo for the evening. For women, an afternoon dress for daytime and evening dress for theevening.

When dressing Japanese style, formal attire will be crested haori(a half-coat) and hakama (a divided skirt)for men, and a black tomesode kimono for married women and a colortomesode kimono for unmarriedwomen.

Semiformal attire will be director's suit or a black suit during daytime and a tuxedo in the evening for men.Women's semiformal attire will be an afternoon dress during daytime and cocktail dress for the evening. If

unmarried, women may wear a furisode (long-sleeved) kimono as well.For informal attire, men will wear a dark suit, such as navy or gray, and mainly a dress or two-piece suit for

women. Japanese style semiformal attire will be a houmongi(ceremonial kimono) oriromuji-montsuki(crestedsolid color) kimono whether married or not, and iromuji(solid color) kimono or tsukesage kimono will besuitable for informal occasions.

Black will be the base color for mourning. Men will wear a black full-dress suit, but wearing a black tie with navyor gray suit is also acceptable when going to the occasion directly from the office. Women will wear a solidblack short sleeve dress with a black long sleeve jacket. Any shiny or glossy fabric should be avoided and skin

exposure shall be limited.For Japanese style, it is common to wear a komon kimono with a black obi(band) or black

crested haori(half-coat).

What has been introduced here is a typical example for formal attire. Consult with ceremonial halls, bridalproduction companies and funeral houses for further details or for any specific advice.Source: Kankonsousai Gojo Kyoukai

A Guide to Mens Formal Attire

Mens Fashion for Your Age: Formal Attire

No one will admit it but formal mens fashion varies according to your age.

Teenagers can get away with a poor quality rental suit, while a supposedly established guy in his 40s wont get any

cred without a custom suit and premium necktie. By your mid-20s, though, your formalwear should already be up to

40 year-old scratch; its one of the surest ways to be taken seriously by both your peers and your elders.

Own Your Outfits

Before you can own an outfit that is, carry the look well you have to literally own it first. Once you hit legal age,

you should no longer be relying on rental companies for the clothes you wear to formal affairs. Your wardrobe ought

to be sufficiently outfitted for all the outfits you could possibly need including the dressy ones.

At the very least have a navy or charcoal gray suit, the chameleons of mens formalwear. Because its still a suit, it

passes many dress code requirements with flying colors. Do you need an office formal ensemble? Wear a light shirt

with a dark tie under the suit. What about something dressy for after-six? Replace the office shirt with a dove gray

one with no necktie. Its a practical style chameleon have one thats really yours (read: preferably tailored).

If youre up for an additional investment and you already have a navy suit, a black or gray one would also be a wise

purchase. Its a step up in terms of formality and, when worn with a slim and strong dark silk necktie, is just a few

inches away fromblack tie attire.

21/42

Nothing beats a tux, however, in a formal contest of formalness. If black tie affairs are regular occurrences for you

say, at least four to five times a year a tailor-made tux is definitely a good buy. Otherwise, you could do with a tux

from the store, altered or fixed for a better fit if possible. A proper bow tie had also better be part of your plans; none

of those pre-tied or elastic imitations will ever be as good as the real knot-it-yourself thing.

Trial and Error No More

Countless men make the mistake of trying to personalize (read: mess around with) formal dress codes, as if they

were todays new tastemakers. One thing you should realize at this point is that dress codes the formal ones in

particular are always about tradition, not reinvention. Sure, the fits might fluctuate every now and then, but the basic

pieces will always fundamentally stay the same. Want to try a new combination? Dont bother.

Does the invitation say formal? At the very least wear a suit and tie; you dont want to look like someone who

wandered into the wrong door. If the card says black tie, theres no other way to do it: wear a tux and a bow tie

although the under-40 crowd is usually amenable to a slim black suit and an equally modern skinny black tie.

Keep away from novelty combination like piping, contrast stitching, odd zippers or non-standard fabrics. Unless

youre trying to make a statement at a fashion industry event or a costume party, such suits arent very safe or very

good ideas. Stick to the formula.

Simple is Stylish

Your age is inversely proportional to the risks you can take, and that goes for fashion as well. Avant garde styles and

designs fresh off the runways are easier to pull off for the younger crowd. As you get ol der, however, youll want to

start distancing yourself from such aesthetics in favor of a more subdued perspective.

It cant be said enough: keep to the classic formulas of formal menswear. Keep your tuxedos, suits andtiesclassic if

not simple. Not only do such pieces make fewer faux pas, but they also never go out of style, making them fantastic

investments in your closet. At the same time, they make you appear more mature and sophisticated something that

formalwear is always supposed to do.

Safe does not have to mean boring; a bold necktie or printedhandkerchiefsconveniently add uniqueness to black tie.

Sophistication, however, always calls for understatement.

Matching Colors with Neckties

Getting your necktiesto go with your shirts sounds easy, yet countless men still make

unspeakable errors with such a seemingly simple task. The truth is that its not as clear cut as you might imagine;

there are just no hard and fast rules for dealing with things as flexible and subjective as colors. There are, however,

certain rules of thumb to make any combination you concoct that much more style-appropriate.

Discover the Wheel

Whether youre a fashion avantgarde or a complete style beginner, you can and should use a color wheel. One of the

most basic tools in the visual arts, the color wheel gives you an idea of which colors can work well together and

which ones are most likely to end up looking like a detonated crayon box.

There are two ways to find new shirt and necktie combinations using a color wheel. First is the complementary colors

method, which involves using two different colors that are directly beside each other. This works best with a more

basic color wheel, which usually features 16 colors or less. That way, the colors in your outfit will be different while at

the same time have a common visual denominator to them, thus adding some harmony.

Alternatively, you could use contrasting colors, or shades that have opposite positions on the wheel. The principle

behind this is that the two colors pop out so starkly against each other. Its supposed to make for a very interesting

and eye-catching pairing of colors.

Since the mens fashion industry has long moved well past monochrome, its unavoidable that your neckties or shirts

will have more than one color. In such cases, the best strategy is to pick the predominant color, the one that catches

your eye first. Thats the color thats also most likely to catch the eye of whoever will look at your outfit.

Colors Standing Out

Regular readers of GQ, Details and similar fashion magazines are familiar with the color combination that uses a bold

and bright shade. To the regular, non-fashion model man, however, this is a very intimidating shirt and tie recipe.

Most feel that they cant pull off such a look -at-me color successfully. But there are a few things to improve your

chances.
http://www.bows-n-ties.com/mens-fashion-tips/color-matching-for-mens-ties/#commentshttp://www.bows-n-ties.com/mens-fashion-tips/color-matching-for-mens-ties/#commentshttp://www.bows-n-ties.com/http://www.bows-n-ties.com/http://www.bows-n-ties.com/http://www.bows-n-ties.com/http://www.bows-n-ties.com/mens-fashion-tips/color-matching-for-mens-ties/#comments


23/42

One of the most common problems that plague this kind of outfit is that the bold, bright color has no space to be bold

and bright. Ballsy neon or fluorescent shades are only a risk when they have to compete with other similarly bright

colors for attention. When you pair these colors with something muted a highlighter necktie with a gray shirt, say

the result is an outfit that looks very daring but actually doesnt take much effort to assemble.

The rule of thumb in mens fashion is to limit your brightly colored items to just one for your entire outfit, and then

make everything else dark or neutral. Its partly why white is such a go -to color for the suit-and-tie market: its the

perfect backdrop for every bright and bold shade you can imagine.

Stock up on subtle, dark or neutral shirts. Not only are bold neckties easier to find and more interesting to look at, but

these kinds of background shirts are more versatile since you can wear them alone and tie -free. Besides, these are

basic things that every man ought to own anyway, whether or not he has a preference for hazard sign orange.

Theres lots of room for interpretation when youre working with colors. Just remember to stick to the most basic rules,

and then play around with the rest.

NYE Resolution #10 Shop and SaveSave and Shop Your Way to Dapper Fashion

One of the hardest parts of having a strong interest in fashion is being able to afford the habit. Clothing can be exceptionally

expensive, especially when you covet designer pieces. It may seem as if dressing well and being able to pay the rent are mutually

exclusive to one another, but they dont have to be. There are plenty of different ways to save money when shopping for

ensemble elements, many of which often go overlooked by those who are new to embracing mens fashion. With the follo wing

tips on your side, youll be able to save money while still looking great in 2013.

Hit the Sales Rack

Just about any boutique, whether it be large or small, will have a sales rack. The sales rack is often a hidden gem at the back of

the clothing store full of high-quality items that are for sale to make room for new arrivals. Ensemble elements can be on sale for

a variety of different reasons, ranging from simply being overstocked to items being discontinued. Best of all, these pieces tend to

rotate on a regular basis, meaning youll always have a new and updated set of sale options to choose from.

Shop at a Thrift Store

Thrift store shopping may have a bad reputation among those who devote piles of money to new designer clothing, but theres no

need for this to be the case. High-end thrift stores typically sell designer pieces for much less than they might sell for at a regular

boutique, which means youll be getting much more bang for your buck. Be sure to look over each item carefully when shopping

at a thrift store to see if it has rips, tears or stains.

Stock Up on Basics

Basics are essential clothing items, and can make all the difference in the world when properly added to an ensemble. You can

stock up on basics without spending a great deal of money if you shop at the right stores. Look for tees, thermals and other,

similar items in a variety of different colors, all of which can serve as the perfect base for an attractive ensemble. Note that basics

typically pertain to shirts, as youll want to spend the extra money on quality pants when possible. Some of the best deals can be

found on basics and seasonal accessories.

Happy New Years!

Tying a Half Windsor Knot

The half Windsor knot is the smaller brother of the popular Windsor knot - also known as Double Windsor or Full

Windsor knot (please scroll down for instructions). The half Windsor is, just like the Four in Hand knot, a smaller tie

knot. When compared to the Four-in-Hand, the half Windsor is a little thicker and a touch wider. Tie this type of knot

for medium-width collar spread dress shirts.

the front of the unfinished knot.

required much less of the ties length, it is also a good choice knot for big & tall men wearing a regular length tie

having the inside of your tie face your body, but then flip the wide side of the tie over so that the stitching is

showing.

How to Tie the Double Windsor Knot

The double Windsor knot, named after the Duke of Windsor, is one of the most popular tie knots, and it is also the

type of knot that is most commonly tied the wrong way. If you like the symmetric look, as well as a larger tie knot,

then the Double Windsor will the right knot for you. It is a perfect knot for wide-spread collar dress shirts.

Since this type of knot needs two wrappings, more length of the tie is needed. This can make it challenging to tie the

tie to the right length so that the tip of the tie ends near the center of your belt buckle. This is especially the case

when tall men or men with a larger neck size try to tie a double Windsor knot with a regular length tie. If this sounds

familiar to you then you may want to consider wearing XL length ties.

Double Windsor Knot Instructions:


29/42

1. Lay the tie around your neck so that the wide end of your tie hangs down about 6-7 inches longer than the narrow

end. Cross the wide end over the narrow end.

2. Loop the necktie through the gap between neck and unfinished tie knot. Pull it all the way around and then backbehind the narrow end.

3. Now do the same thing on the other side.

4. Wrap the wide end of the tie back over to the front.

5. Pull the wide end back through in between neck and unfinished knot. Dont pull tight, but create a loop in front of

the knot.

6. Pull the wide end of the tie through this loop.

7. Pull tight and give the knot a final adjustment. And you are done!

How to Tie a Prince Albert Knot

The Prince Albert knot is, just like the Full Windsor knot, a so-called double knot that required at least two wrappings.

But unlike the double Windsor, the Prince Albert knot is wrapped in the same direction making the knot slightly longer

and a little more asymmetric looking. It is a perfect tie knot for thinner neckties, or for shorter men that need a shorter

length tie.


30/42

Prince Albert Tie Knot Instructions:

1. Since this tie requires 2+ wrappings (number of wrappings is personal preference) the wide end of the tie needs to

hang much lower than the narrow en.

2. Place the wide end over the narrow end and wrap around. Do this twice or more. The more wrappings the larger

the tie knot will be.

3. On the final wrapping create a loop in front of the finished necktie knot. Take the wide end of the tie and pull it in

between your neck and the tie and through the loop.

4. Pull slightly tight, give a final adjustment, and flip down the collars. Finished!

How to Make a Dimple in Your Necktie Knot

The true necktie aficionado takes his time when tying his ties. The knot has to be perfect. What makes a tie knot

perfect? First of all the type of knot chosen has to match the tie design, as well as the collar shape of the dress shirt.

In addition, the perfect knot has a dimpled look meaning it has a crevice right where the tie goes inside of the knot.

To make a dimpled tie knot is actually quite easy. During the final step of your tie knot, right before tightening, slide a

finger inside the loop and carefully fold the tie along the center. Fold the tie all the way up through the knot to ensure

the dimple stays in place. Then, carefully tighten the knot while pulling out your finger. With a little bit of practice it

really is that simple. If you still have difficulty making a dimple after several attempts, then try it with a different

necktie. Different fabric weaves make some ties better suited for a dimpled tie knot than others.

Tips on Dressing for a Job Interview

Tips on Dressing for a Job Interview - Your interview attire is more important than you think so let your talent and personality

get you noticed, not your wild tie or brightly colored socks. The right clothes give you an opportunity to make the rightimpression. I have outlined 4 important tips on dressing for a job interview.

Fragrance

On the day of our interview, before you even begin to get dressed, there is one thing you should avoid. You may be tempted to

follow your normal routine of splashing your favorite cologne or aftershave on after you hop out of the shower. Dont do it for

your interview, you dont want to overwhelm the interviewer. They may not like your fragrance as much as you do.

What to Wear. . .

To a more formal interview: It helps to know how formal the company you will be interviewing with is and if wearing a suit is

necessary. I hate to state the obvious, but it is important to go in a suit and tie to any company that's part of a more formal

industry, such as banking, law or brokerage. Choose a basic black, dark gray or navy suit. Also opt for black leather lace-up

shoes and a black belt. Blue shirts are a great choice since they compliment most skin tones and easily coordinate with most suit

colors. Choose a flattering tie that goes well with both the suit and shirt you have chosen.

To a less formal interview: Some less formal industries such as software development and technology companies will not require

a suit. However, it's better to wear something a little nicer than what everyone in the office is wearing. So choose something

dressy but casual. Such ensembles might include pressed khakis or trousers, a well pressed button-down shirt, and of course some

sort of nice looking dress shoe and matching belt. You may even want to thrown on a blazer. Navy blazers look great with khaki

pants.

Shoes and Belts

Pay attention to details such as matching your belt to the color of your shoes. Choose black shoes if your outfit consists of dark

gray, navy, brown or black. Opt for dark brown shoes if you'll be wearing tans or medium toned colors. I hate to sound like your

mother, but polish or clean your shoes before your interview. Scuff marks on your shoes make you look tattered, and we can't

have that.

Accessories

Keep interview accessories minimal and professional. Use some sort of bound portfolio to carry your resume, references or other

papers. Men should limit jewelry to a wristwatch and cufflinks if you wear them. Earrings, necklaces, nose rings, and such are

not interview material (for the man who wants the job anyway). Whatever the type of industry, men should wear jewelry

sparingly.

The Internet is another good place for ideas. Visit the "suit" section of any major department store's

website for the latest in what is in style for this season and what appeals to you.

Composed Appropriately: At a basic level this means brown shoes go with a brown belt and black

shoes go with a black belt. Clothes should be cleaned and shoes polished and ready to go the night

before your interview.

More substantively it means the proper tie knot, tied correctly. The tie is the most crucial component

of the outfit because it is the most prominent and can be worn correctly or incorrectly and it signals

your competency immediately. If you haven't had sufficient experience with tying ties now is the time

to learn.

Most men learned to tie the Four-in-Hand knot from their fathers. It worked fine as a young man and

still has its place, but wearing a Four-in-Hand knot to a job interview would be a poor choice. In most

cases it looks small, lopsided and amateurish on a grown man. It would be a giveaway sign to any HR

person that the applicant has little experience in a professional environment.

A better suggestion would be the Pratt Knot, a very easy to tie knot popularized by news anchor Don

Shelby. It should be noted that shirt collars have different sized openings. The choice of tie knot

should correspond to the type of collar opening.

The Pratt Knot is a medium-sized, symmetrical knot appropriate for most shirt collars and

should be in everyone's repertoire. Here is how to tie a Pratt Knot.

1. Place the tie around your neck with the inside of your tie, the side with the label, facing OUTWARD,

i.e. backward. Place it so the wide end in your right hand and the narrow end in your left hand.

2. Cross wide end under the narrow end and end on the left side.

3. Continue by bring the wide end of the tie up over the narrow end and down through the loop

around your neck, remaining on the left side.

4. Next cross the wide end in front of the tie from left to right ending on the right.

5. Now come up through the neck loop and down through the loop made by the previous cross at the

front of the tie.

6. Tighten carefully and draw up to collar.

7. The tip of the tie should just cover your belt buckle. If it is too long or too short, reverse these

steps to untie the tie and shorten or lengthen it accordingly.

Dont be the guy with the great suit and the bad shoes. Greatmen's dress shoesare an investment and are the base of your

wardrobe. You need a nice suit (or two) and you also need great shoes to go with it. That doesnt mean they need to be expensive,

but they do need to be sharp.

When thinking ofthe best dress shoes for suits, as a general rule, your shoes should be as dark, if not darker than your suit. If

youre wearing a black suit there is only one choice: black shoes. As the tone of your suit gets lighter, so can your shoes.

Here are some great picks that will have you looking your best:

1. The Best Men's Shoes for Navy Suits

Johnston & Murphy 'Melton' Oxford Image: Zappos.com

This is your most flexible suit, but be careful what color shoes you wear. Keep in mind that your shoes should be as dark as your

suit, be careful when wearing brown shoes with a navy suit. Dark brown and burgundy are great, but stay away from anythinglighter like tan. Black is safe as well.

My pick, Johnston & Murphy 'Melton' Oxford: This is a classic shoe that will last you for years and can be worn with just

about anything from slacks and a sweater to a suit. They also are a cap toe, which is a timeless look and really comfortable.

2. Men's Shoes for Charcoal Gray Suits

Cole Haan 'Air Carter' Image: Zappos.com

Theres a little debate with a charcoal suit, but again black shoes are king. In a more informal situation you can get away with a

very, very dark brown shoe, but tread lightly. If you are going with a gray suit, then you can definitely consider brown shoes.

My pick, Cole Haan Air Carter: Insanely comfortable for a dress shoe with Nikes Air technology, these are pricy enough to

be taken seriously, but not so expensive that itll send you running for the exits.

3. Choosing Men's Shoes for Black Suits

Florsheim 'Edgar' Oxford Image: Zappos.com

If youre wearing a black suit, you wear black shoes. There is no debate.

My pick, Florsheim 'Edgar' Oxford: Great value for a pair of go-to shoes for your black suit. Allen Edmonds 'Fifth Avenue'

Oxford (buy direct): These are shoes to aspire to. You care for this as you would a vintage car and they will in turn take care of

you. Most of us only own a pair of shoes like this once in a lifetime.

4. Men's Shoes for Seersucker Suits

Johnston & Murphy 'Brennan Plain Toe' Image: Zappos.com

If youre the kind of guy that can pull off a seersucker suit, then you probably dont need me telling you what kind of shoes to

wear. If youre thinking making the leap to the warm weather suit, here are some snazzy options.

My pick, Johnston & Murphy Brennan Plain Toe: If you can pull off a pair of white bucks, youll take over the party.

Theyre classic, stylish and comfortable enough to be on your feet all day.

Invest in your dress shoes and theyll see you through things like: your wedding, job interviews, dinner with the in-laws and

special occasions where only a suit will do. Just make sure you return the favor by using shoe-trees and keeping them clean and

shined.
