Formal shirts






Business shirts for men
The men's shirt, sometimes called a blouse, is an indispensable part of many wardrobes. This is especially true for men who frequently need to dress for formal occasions. However, it would be a mistake to just pull a business shirt out of the closet. There is a surprising diversity of shirts, each with a unique look. At Suitable, you can have your new business shirt delivered free and fast with just a few clicks.
Why choose a business shirt?
A business shirt is a business card. With a well-chosen shirt, you immediately show that you have an eye for detail and professionalism. These shirts are made of high-quality fabrics such as twill or poplin, which drape smoothly and stay sharp all day long. With the right fit, it not only feels comfortable but also exudes confidence. Invest in a few timeless colours: white, light blue, maybe a subtle stripe, and you are ready for any meeting and formal occasion.
Are Oxford shirts business appropriate?
Oxford shirts are somewhere between formal and casual, also known as smart casual. The thick Oxford fabric has a coarser weave, making the fabric more robust and slightly sportier. Moreover, they often have a button-down collar (buttons attached to the shirt). This makes them more casual than the classic business shirt. Still, Oxford shirts in solid colours like white, light blue or pastels fit well in an office outfit.
What to wear with a business shirt?
The most obvious choice would be a men's suit. However, there are more combinations to consider to make a confident impression. You can stylishly wear a business shirt with chinos and smart, dark men's jeans or for example linen trousers for the summer. There's nothing wrong with well-kept sneakers or loafers. Use solid colours, subtle textures and patterns for a more formal look. Of course, a matching blazer is a must-have in some situations.
Business shirts for men in various styles
Business men's shirts are available in various variants. For the right look, it is important to consider the following points:
- Which fabric do you find most comfortable?
For instance, chic wool shirts for winter, casual linen shirts for summer and stretch shirts that move flexibly with you. - Do you want to show off your tie?
Then you have a choice of different collars like the cut-away and wide-spread where the collar is wider open and shows off your tie well. - Which fit suits the occasion?
The more tailored the shirt, the sleeker you look. The Slim-Fit is especially suitable for slim and muscular men, while the Modern-Fit is the most popular for their neat appearance and freedom of movement. Additionally, there is also the Regular-Fit where the shirt falls straight down and is suitable for most body types.
