How to choose a great nightclub dress shirt
Dress codes at nightclubs have changed a lot throughout the past years. In the 80’s men were required to be dressed down in ties and suits at clubs. That has changed, most places now have a more relaxed dress code. Nevertheless, you still want to dress to impress. The best tip is to mix it up a bit, wear shirts that others don’t have and wear what suits your personal style. The best way to find this is with custom dress shirts or slim fit dress shirts.
The Fit
We can’t say it enough, the fit of your men’s shirts is a really important part of your look. If you have something that resembles an athletic body, we would highly recommend going after a tailored slim fit shirt, these fits as mentioned earlier are not super tight, but do follow the contours of your body.
The Striped Dress Shirt
Often at nightclubs you spot a frenzy of striped dress shirts. There are a whole lot of nice patterns to choose from when it comes to striped shirts. When deciding to wear a striped dress shirt it is important to consider your physique. For example striped dress shirts make shorter men look taller and tall men look even taller. Don’t want to look taller? Then skip the striped dress shirts.
Also try to avoid striped shirts, or any dress shirt for that matter that has more than two colors, at most three colors on it. Many different colors can give a rainbow effect, which won’t usually impress at a nightclub.
Be aware though the slightly bold striped dress shirts or any patterned dress shirts, even if they are great looking is that they will stand out and people notice it more than a dress shirt suited for the office. That means if you wear that great looking but slightly bold dress shirt regularly it will get noticed and people will think you are wearing it all the time even if in reality you only wear it three times a week.
Another idea is to stay away from striped blazers if you’re already wearing a striped dress shirt. Wearing ties to nightclubs is a gamble either you’ll have enough style to pull it off or you’ll look out of place. If you are going to go with the tie look try wearing the modern slim ties that can give out a modern attitude instead of being too formal, which is what you want to avoid.
Solid Dress Shirt Colors
You can never go wrong with the solid black dress shirt. It looks good with any color pants and if those pants are black you’ll be looking even taller than you actually are. That actually counts for any color if you wear it on your upper body and lower body.
Equally classic and useful is the white dress shirt with pink quickly becoming more popular for men.
All in all, follow your style and don’t be dictated by the raving fashion people out there. What ever makes you more comfortable makes you more confident.
