Green gets a bad rap in fashion. One of the most humble, easy going colors in nature is often scoffed at in preference for its kissing cousin, blue. Green, whether hunter, olive, lime or forest, adds vibrancy and color to any wardrobe and is a saavy and sartorially sophisticated way to freshen up an everyday work suit.
Green dress shirts can be worn to a variety of occasions but work best for times when you want to get noticed without being flamboyant or over the top. When choosing what to wear with a green men’s dress shirt, consider the underlying tones. Lighter greens like our classic lime green men’s dress shirt works best with red-toned suits, especially plaids or windowpanes like the Madison Red Glenplaid Suit.
Green men’s dress shirts can be perfect first date attire or worn with sports coats or blazers and slacks or jeans for a casual Friday at the office. Knot Standard’s Classic Beige Blazer and light colored denim jeans pair perfectly with our Classic Lime Green Dress Shirt for a fun and casual look.
If you’re wondering what tie, consider a darker shade of green if you’re wearing a glenplaid suit and if a solid colored sport coat, go for a textured or pattern tie to add some sartorial complexity.
The most important thing to remember is remember to feel comfortable and confident and get the fit right with our custom designs.
