At NELSON WADE in Scottsdale Arizona, we always recommend that when it’s time to put on a tie, it’s important to make your choice of tie carefully. The appropriate chosen necktie and pocket square can put the finishing touches to your ensemble with an exclamation point!
A great looking tie should create the right amount of contrast between the tie, your chosen dress shirt and custom suit.
A few ensemble recommendations to consider…rule number 1, simple is good! A dark-colored necktie should typically be worn with a light-colored dress shirt and vice versa. You can never go wrong with this rule of thumb.
Patterns, patterns and more patterns!
How do you match patterns. The most important factor of matching patterns with your ensemble is to find a color in the necktie or a desired theme, to bring the ensemble together.
An example of this, when matching a patterned tie to a striped colored dress shirt, select a necktie that has contains the same or similar color as in your custom dress shirt.
Another rule of thumb patterned dress shirts and necktie, is when you select a checkered dress shirt and you want to wear a necktie that will compliment your dress shirt, the larger pattern should be on your tie, the smaller checkered dress shirt pattern should be as a background.
At NELSON WADE, we hope a few of these tips will help you thru the right selection of a tie for your custom ensemble!
